Where Two Great Rivers Meet: A Visit to the Iconic Deutsches Eck in Koblenz
Welcome to the breathtaking Deutsches Eck in Koblenz, Germany-a place where history, culture, and stunning natural beauty come together!
This iconic landmark marks the confluence of the Rhine and Mosel Rivers, two of the most important waterways in Europe. The name "Deutsches Eck," meaning "German Corner," has deep historical significance, dating back to the 13th century when it was home to the Teutonic Order. Today, it’s best known for the towering statue of Emperor Wilhelm I, symbolizing the unity of Germany.
Standing here, you can watch as the powerful currents of the Mosel flow into the mighty Rhine, creating a spectacular meeting point of two legendary rivers. The surrounding promenade...

Wonderful tour of Schloss Dhaun. It's still impressive after all these centuries. Thanks for taking us along and happy travels.
Wonderful trip to a beautiful town on a quiet Sunday afternoon. I can't help wondering what stories those old houses could tell of times past. Your choice of music was perfect for a stroll through town. Thanks for taking us along and happy traveling.
❤ Glad you enjoyed it
Koblenz is a lovely town with lots of timber framed buildings. We were there for three really nice days.
Wow
Our housing was up the hill from Rose Barracks. I don't even recognize a lot of this now.
Yes it has. This is a couple of years old now and it is even more developed someday I will do a update video
I called this home in 1983-86
You were lucky, I drew Baumholder!
I was assigned to the 576th Medical Detachment (Dental Services), along with the 225th Station Hospital on the "hill". Yes, Bad Kreuznach was a special assignment. The German people made it even better.
A very relaxing trip through the countryside. So nice when someone else does the driving. Thanks for taking us along and may all your travels be happy ones.
Thanks for showing us a beautiful part of Eastern France. My Dad was in the 3rd Infantry Division and participated in the battle of the Colmar Pocket. He said that one of the difficulties they had was the bitter cold and very heavy snow. Very unusual for this area. I have been up to Chateau de Haut Koenigsbourg in November when it was cold and windy but no snow. The beautiful view and the great food in the restaurant made it all worthwhile. Happy Traveling and looking forward to your next trip.
nice bro
Thanks
Thanks
Wonderful trip to Eltville am Rhein. Thanks for taking us along. Happy motoring!
I lived on the hill in housing. I rarely went into Rose Barracks. 1983-86
A beautiful day for a road trip. Thanks for taking us along. May all your travels be happy ones.
@@robertgoers6539 thank you
They leave the kitchen a mess at night.
Isn't that the truth.
Another GREAT Video!!
Stationed in Baumholder, August 1977 to August 1979, HHB, 8th Infantry Division Artillery, S-3 Section.
Was that HHB 3/16?? Where were your barracks. Email me westarvid@yahoo.com
Don’t recognize none of this. I was there from 1965-1967.
yes, so much has changed over the years. But if you wanna see more of what it is now check out my other videos. I have several and also Idar Oberstein, BK and a drive by the old HQ + more!
I was there from 85’ to 87’, I loved Rose Barracks also. I was in the 8th Signal Bn. Explored all over Germany and around base. Wish I could do it again. 😅😂😅
This is great; thank you! We were at Landstuhl in the 60s. The Bismarck Tower was next to the school I attended. Great memories.
Thanks for showing us the museum. I hope to get there this fall and see it myself. Happy travels.
If you do give me a email and we can meet for a beer
Interesting video. Have been there once in the late 90’s, was invited by a German Reservist to take part in a sniper training at the range, and got to bring my C. shares in 45-70 to shoot at some long range targets.
I was on Marshall Kaserne from 97 to 2000.. Everything looks sooo different
Clearly this place was majical. I landed there in 93 not sure when I left but I had a chance to stay and european out as they called it. I didnt but I think I should have. One thing that I remember was that the city shut down in the middle of the day. When I first experienced it I was like what? They offered me a glass of apple scotch.
Thanks for another great video. I didn't know Baumholder had a museum. I hope to see it soon. Best of luck and happy traveling.
It is fairly new amd locatred on the main street set back and in the Golden Engel (original name on building)
Thanks for sharing 👍
I enjoyed my time in Baumholder, August 1977 to August 1979.
from 55 mins is why i love driving in germany, great views.
this pueblo is amazing., my wife and I just arrived here a week ago Feb 17, 2024, and we saw this video., we are experiencing the same views, and the same vibe, and like you, we wanted to be outside the major tourist areas. this for us it has been the perfect choice. love the culture and the people. oh by the way we are also staying at the same hotel. Marylou is our host,., lol...
So glad you are having a good time. Enjoy your vacation!
BTW where are you coming from?
USA, Clermont, FL.
Great video!
THANK YOU
I was stationed at Rose Barracks from 1985-1988. Was with the 8th MP Co. Which was the first barracks to the left as you entered the main gate. Our Motorpool was was across the street. Went back as a tourist in 2012 and although the motor pool was an empty field, our barracks and the HQ building looked as it did in the 80s. Glad i was able so it before the bigger changes. Thanks for the video.
I was in 8th MP Co from 1985-1988
Cool! I was there for two years, assigned to 8th Finance until November '91.
8th MP Co. 1981-1984, as an MP. . Civilian employee 1984-1986
Yes, it was a fun evening visiting the times of the German Robinhood...Thank you
Ahh.. Schinderhannes Räuberfest.. 😁👍🏻 Verry Nice! 😍
Gutes Video! 🙂👍🏻
Thank you, it was fun
where is 8th Inf Div now?
I think they went back to the states before becoming inactive. Things have changed so much it is about time for a new video, maybe when the weather gets better.
I'd love to see a new video of BK & what was Rose. I loved it there and all of Germany@@westarvideojg8801
I have anpther of downtown and around BK plus one of a walk in the hills above BK. But being 2024 I plan to do a new BK driving video. Maybe on a Sunday morning with not so much traffic.But please subscribe to get a notifacation when I do. AND check out all my videos Baumholder and Idar Oberstein videos are alsoonline. I went to a new meseum in Baumholder and will put that video up sometime in the next few months. Stay tuned@@douglascouchot3430

Thanks for showing us such a beautiful town on old Hwy 41. I've been through it many times on my way to BK but never stopped to see how nice it is. Now I will. Happy travels!
Glad you liked it and nice to hear from you again. Let me know next time you are in the area!
Enjoyed Baumholder August 1977 to August 1979.
Please send me a way to contact you
So strange seeing the Wermacht Army soldiers all lined up on the same "football field" I stood, holding our Flag during a welcoming ceremony to a visiting US dignitary. We would play touch football on that same field on Sundays too. HHC 2nd Brigade 8th Infantry Division, 74-76. Nice to see too the very old photos of the town and its people.
Been 30+ years since I was there. I miss the city and the people. Back in the day there was a country bar/club called Dixie. A lot of good times there. My friends and I use to walk all over the place checking everything out on our time off. Plus many great festivals there. Just beautiful
Dixies and La Paz
Great photos and memories. There with 2nd Brigade 8th ID, 74-76. Strange to see the Military side all screened/gated/guarded off. Town looks fairly the same, albeit newer paint, landscaping, businesses, many that replaced the many bars and clubs back then. Nice job, thanks for sharing.
Danke fur das video. Wir haben im Bitburg AB gewonnen von 1990 -1993. Tut mier leid, ich habe nicht geshreiben deutshce im driezig jahre.
Love Bad Kreuznach! Love downtown area.Nightlife at clubs such as Roxy, Enigma, and Century Club were great memories. Miss the people I used to hang out with there.
Yes...used to be fun but all those places are gone. All that is left are the memories!
Nothing is the same as in the 90s all those places are gone 😢
I was stationed at Rose barracks in 1972 + and do not see anything familiar. There are about 100 ties more cars on the road than I ever saw back than. Most Germans didn;t even have a phoine either at this time. Nice video.
Greetings Tim, I was there in 1972 attending the high school over by the hospital. I worked part time for the manager of the movie theater and at the EES gas station by the PX on the weekends. Sure do miss everyone there had a really great time growing up in BK.
Nice video. I was stationed in BK back in 1972 at Rose Barracks so I have numerous memories. I understand what it is like when the downtown area is deserted. The place was just a small town all those years ago and every Sunday everything was closed so it made for a lonely walk.
Super moment
Nice work. A lovely video. 16 years ago I lived there off of Wiesenstrauß for 3 years. It was while I was stationed in the Army. Oh I miss it. Time flies 😢
