Lonely Planet review for Ehrenbreitstein
On the right bank, looming above the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle Rivers, this mighty fortress proved indestructible to all but Napoleonic troops in 1801. A few years later, the Prussians took this as a challenge to build one of Europe's strongest fortifications. Behind the mighty bulwarks is a hostel, two restaurants and the Landesmuseum.
