Our next port was Koblenz,at the confluence of the Rhine and Mosel. At the German Corner (Deutches Eck) stands this imposing statue of Kaiser Wilhelm.

A walking tour of the city led us to the Church of Our Lady, which has Romanesque towers from 1170, a Gothic sanctuary from 1430 and baroque spires.

The Max and Moritz Grill, named after characters in a childhood story.

The citizens of Koblenz show a sense of humor in a number of statues in the city. Here is a policeman with a woman selling vegetables.
