Andernach, Medieval riverside town in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Located on the left bank of the Rhine River, Andernach extends between the Nette River and the former fishing settlement of Fornich.

Established in 12 BC as Antunnacum, this Roman settlement developed from an existing Celtic village and marked its 2000th anniversary in 1988.

The Round Tower from 1453 and the sixteenth-century Old Crane remain central features of the municipal architectural heritage.

The railway station connects travelers to major cities through InterCity and regional trains, offering direct routes to Cologne and Koblenz.

The local cold-water geyser reaches heights of 210 feet, making it the tallest natural fountain of its type worldwide.
