Amei esta linda praça com uma fonte mais linda ainda...... As figuras humanas retratadas na fonte são muito interessantes e transmitem muita garra e força ..... A praça é rodeada por restaurantes charmosos e vale a pena sentar num deles nem se for para tomar somente um café apreciando o entorno. Dica - debaixo desta parca fica um estacionamento público que é super bem situado pois a partir deste ponto da para percorrer á pé praticamente todos os pontos turísticos da cidade
Apart from a good underground car park underneath the square, there is a lovely statue in the Gorresplatz, aparently of a lot of Burgers. Beautifully sculpted.
This is a really nice square in the old town with an interesting statue/fountain in the centre. There are restaurants, coffee bars and ice cream parlours in the vicinity, pretty gardens and lovely trees. A good place to relax during your sightseeing or shopping with musical interludes from the street musicians if you're lucky.
Great fountain in a little square. Get there in good light if you want photo's. There's a lot going on so spend some time just gazing. Plenty of places to eat nearby.
Very pleasant square with a beautiful fountainRoom to sit in the sqare. Very near to the old town with easy access to Rhine and Mosel
Небольшая площадь в центре города с весьма интересной колонной. Довольно свежее произведение, но очень необычное. Представляет историю города Кобленц со времени римлян (в нижней части фонтана), французского и прусского времени ( в середине) и разрушения города во время Второй мировой войны. Очень впечатляющая колонна. Очень интересно разглядывать лица людей.
We were there and again another band was set up plaing music and vendors selling food and beer. So lucky to be there on a friday evening with lot's of activities going on. Wish we weren't so tired from our travels so we could have had the energy to stay later. We pooped out at 10:30pm.
Archaeological finds proove that the area surrounding the current Görresplein was already inhabited by the Romans. In the middle ages, it was the property of the Kastor foundation, later it became property of the of the Jesuit order. 19th Century gradually built, later municipal property. Formerly called "Großer Platz" or "Paradeplatz", late 18th century during French occupation also "Place verte". Late 19th century named after General August von Goeben, a monument was errected for him at the "Goebenplatz", for 10 years he was commanding general of the Koblenzer VIIIth army corps. After WW II the square was "demilitarized" (Goeben-monument removed) and the square was named after Koblenzer publicist and historian Josef Görres. In the middle of the square the 10 meter high fountain “history column”, artist Jürgen Weber tells in 10 juxtaposed “floors” in 3D scenes the history of Koblenz.

This is one of the most intricately carved statues/monuments I have ever seen. You can spend lots of time looking at all of the fine detail and stories that are told within. It is located in the altstadt, in a very nice square where you can enjoy some coffee, food, eis, or a beer. There is lots of room to sit on benches or on the steps near the fountain to enjoy your time.
