Country Facts:
- Vallendar is located just 5 kilometers away from Koblenz, a city dating back over 2000 years.
- The city owes its name to the Romans who named the "castle" they constructed here around 9 B.C. "castellum apud confluentes." This means "castle at the confluence of the rivers".
- Surrounding Vallendar are hills adorned with castles, towers, and vineyards, delightfully flowing along the rivers.
