Koblenz-Ehrenbreitstein, City district on the eastern bank of Rhine River in Koblenz, Germany.

The district extends from the Rhine riverbank to steep slopes in the north and east, with the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress positioned on a rocky plateau.

The territory shows continuous fortification evidence since 1000 BCE, making it the longest documented military stronghold location in Germany.

The district maintains architectural elements from various periods, including structures from its time as residence of the Trier prince-electors in the 17th century.

The district connects to central Koblenz through a cable car system that spans 800 meters across the Rhine, operating on scheduled times throughout the year.

The area contains extreme elevation differences, from river level settlements to the fortress plateau, creating distinct geographical zones within one district.
