Trier

Trier impresses with its Roman-era structures—most notably the well-preserved Porta Nigra. But the city’s churches are also worth visiting. Germany’s oldest city was founded by the Romans around 16 B.C. under Emperor Augustus. Charlemagne made the city an archbishopric. In hardly any other German city are the remnants of the Romans as abundant as they are in Trier. You can even drink them in the form of wine. The vineyards on the slopes of the Moselle and Saar valleys look back on 2,000 years of history.

Germany

Bernkastel-Kues

Numerous half-timbered houses adorn the town of Bernkastel, situated right on the Moselle. Perched above the town is a castle with a restaurant, and the old town is home to numerous small boutiques and shops. The Moselle is perfect for an unforgettable boat cruise, as well as for kayaking or canoeing. Bernkastel is known for its ideal location on the Moselle and its quaint old town. Together with Kues, it forms a twin town—on the left and right banks of the Moselle—with numerous restaurants and bars.

Germany

Traben-Trarbach

The small wine-growing town of Traben-Trarbach is situated right on the Moselle in a beautiful valley. Surrounded by numerous vineyards, it is one of the most beautiful places in the region—romantic, quaint, and modern. In addition to wine tastings and a boat ride on the Moselle, you can take a hike to Grevenburg, a ruin high up on the mountain, and the Buddha Museum should also be on your itinerary. A medieval market square graces the center of the small town, and the Brückentor gate is another of its historic landmarks.

Cochem

Cochem is Germany’s smallest county seat and is located in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Cochem lies on the Moselle River and is famous for its winegrowing. The town offers a picturesque view of the vineyards. Even from a distance, the Reichsburg Castle is clearly visible and serves as the town’s landmark. The town is popular not only with bowling clubs and families. The cobblestone-paved old town offers a pleasant stroll and invites visitors to linger by the fountain.

Düsseldorf

The Rhineland way of life, blending tradition and modernity—Düsseldorf captivates with its diversity! Art and culture lovers are just as enthralled here as shopping enthusiasts; the Media Harbor impresses with its contemporary architecture, as does the historic Old Town. With more than 250 cozy pubs, the Old Town makes Düsseldorf the “longest bar in the world.” And it’s not just the traditional Altbier that tastes great there! Don’t miss a stroll down Königsallee, the world-famous shopping boulevard—or perhaps you’d prefer a visit to one of the many charming flea markets? And right in the middle of it all: plenty of green space and the Rhine with its riverside promenade, perfect for taking a deep breath. No wonder the VIVA family feels right at home here!
