Moselle Bridge Between Perl and Schengen

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge is a very special place in the border triangle of Germany, France and Luxembourg. It connects the Saarland town of Perl with Schengen in Luxembourg. Schengen is known for the agreement of the same name, which was signed here in 1985 and laid the foundation for open borders in Europe.🇪🇺

Among other things, the Europaplatz, a Europamuseum and a Europadenkmal are reminders of the historical importance of the place. Everything can be found very close to the bridge.

Crossing into Luxembourg

Highlight • Monument

Schengen is located right in the border triangle of France, Germany and Luxembourg. Schengen became a synonym for an area without border controls when, on June 14, 1985, five EU member states signed the Schengen Agreement on the anchored passenger ship MS "Princesse Marie-Astrid", which provides for the abolition of controls at the common borders and the introduction of the free movement of people and goods (Wikipedia).

View of the Moselle River from the Stadtbredimus Climb

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is a very mild climb with gradient ranging from 3~7% with a beautiful view of River Mosel. It is highly recommended either direction. Give a little twist to your Mosel riverside ride, traffic is very low. After the climb you have various options, taking a longer climb to the direction of Canach, or another hilly country lane to Gostingen, finally you can go back to flatter river road by riding towards Hettermillen. Or you can ride through vineyards down to the river directly.
