Remich
A wine town on the left bank of the Moselle, known as the “Pearl of the Moselle”, with a riverside promenade, sparkling wine cellars and a boat landing.
Remich lies in southeastern Luxembourg on the left bank of the Moselle, with Germany on the opposite bank. It is the smallest municipality in Luxembourg, and its history goes back to the Roman-era settlement of Remacum. The main sight is a shaded promenade of about 3 km along the river, lined with cafés, wine bars and a visitor centre shaped like a white river cruise boat. In the old town, the medieval St. Nicholas Gate and a 12th-century church tower survive. The Caves St Martin are carved into the rock face and are famous for Luxembourgish sparkling wine (Crémant), with guided tours and tastings available. The landing stage offers short boat trips along the river to wine villages such as Schengen, or you can walk across the bridge to Perl in Germany. It is less than an hour by bus from Luxembourg City, making it suitable for a half-day trip or a Moselle day trip combined with Schengen.
