Wittlich

Wittlich is a town in the Moselle valley in Rhineland-Palatinate, surrounded by hills and located at the edge of a wine-growing region. The place spreads across a green valley and offers a mix of historic buildings and modern facilities.

The town received city rights in 1300 and developed over the centuries as a regional trade center. Its location on the Moselle has always shaped the economic and cultural history of the place.

The Säubrenner Kirmes festival takes place every August, bringing people together to taste local food specialties and enjoy regional music and performances. This tradition shapes community life and shows how the town maintains its identity.
