This may well be the cutest, most breathtaking square in Germany (together with the market square in Trier). ALL the houses are beautiful and in great shape!

Highly recommended! You can take the train to Cochem. The station is about ten minutes from the town centre. There is a tourist information and the shuttle bus leaves from one of the bus stands outside (just ask at the tourist information if you need help - they were really friendly). The bunker itself is a five minute drive away. The tour lasted about an hour. I did the German-language tour (and German is not my first language). Your German will need to be good if you do the German language tour as an explanation is needed. I believe there are also English-language tours as well. The only slight criticism is the group size. There were about 28 in my group and we didn't always fit in the same room as the guide which also made it a little difficult to catch everything that was being said. However, this was all in all a minor point and the passion and enthusiasm of the guide was clear and made this a really interesting tour. Cochem is a beautiful town and you could easily make a full-day trip here.
7. Karl Marx House

The birthplace of Karl Marx, preserved to reflect the environment in which he developed his early ideas on class conflict.
Reviewed By RebeccaHTraveller - Crawley, United Kingdom
This house where Karl Marx lived as a child gives plenty of detail about his life, all presented via interesting exhibits. A lot about Marx himself and communism in general, as an added point of interest there is also a nearby pedestrian crossing with a light in the shape of Marx.

These ancient baths, once frequented by Constantine, have stood for over 2,000 years.

The magnitude of the underground chambers at this site are unbelievable. A must see! There are a lot of renovations ongoing at the site so it is difficult to see and appreciate the tall exterior of the Kaiserthermen. There was a brochure in English to explain the site.

Reviewed By ROAMINGSCOT55 - Cumbernauld, United Kingdom
This is an area slightly away from the centre of Trier, but within easy walking distance. It is free to view, with walkways across the Roman remains. There are several information displays which are very informative, and which make you appreciate how different Roman settlements were, being far more advanced than the rest of Europe.
10. Metternich Castle

If you happen going to Germany. This is a must visit place. Take a parking nearby if you go by car, or if you are going by boat it's also a walking distance to go up to the castle. It's a small town worth for a stop.
