Deutsches Eck (German Corner)
蕙质兰心蕙质兰心
The German Cape is a land at the intersection of the Moselle and Rhine rivers in Koblenz, Germany, and houses a bronze horse riding sculpture of William I, the first emperor of the German Empire. On the top of the hill opposite the berth is the Ellenbrightstein Fortress. Around 1000 AD, a small castle was built here, and for centuries the Electors of Trier converted it into a fortress. Later, the French destroyed it, and the Prussian Kingdom sent men to repair the Ellenbrightstein Fortress. The fortress is one of the most powerful fortresses built in Europe after 1815 and remains intact.
