Before your cruise from Cochem, take time out to visit Reichsburg Castle, perched atop a small hill planted with vines and dense trees. Contemplate this late-Gothic castle from afar, with its distinctive corbels, battlements and pointed turrets. Inside this 11th-century imperial castle, discover a secret passageway leading to the Capuchin monastery in the town center. Visit the weapons room, hunting room and knights' hall. The château's falconry also offers unique shows, with demonstrations of the flight of various birds of prey. For gourmets, rustic knights' meals are regularly served in the castle cellar. Your visit to Cochem is also an invitation to discover the medieval character of the old town. Take a stroll along the narrow cobbled streets lined with tall half-timbered houses, and discover the remains of the historic ramparts. Take time to visit the medieval market square and the old parish church of Saint-Martin, adorned with modern stained-glass windows. For a magnificent panorama of the town and Moselle valley, climb to the top of Pinner kreuz, accessible by chairlift.
