Hurtige fakta: Three architectural eras live under one roof here: Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque. The church's 93-meter tower offers panoramic views over the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle rivers.
Højdepunkter: Look closely at the westwork and you'll spot a 12th-century Romanesque structure that survived centuries of war, including World War II bombing that destroyed much of Koblenz. Inside, a single Gothic pillar rises 22 meters high, carved from a single piece of stone that was floated down the Rhine river in the 14th century.
Insidertips
- Skip the main tourist season in July-August when the interior gets crowded with tour groups.
- Wear sturdy shoes for the narrow spiral staircase climb up the 93-meter tower.
- Visit on a Saturday morning to hear the organ practice sessions echoing through the nave.
- Bring a wide-angle lens for photos the Gothic choir is tight but spectacular from the back pews.
