    A new attraction in the World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley: the William Turner hiking trail leads to the places where the famous British painter created his watercolors with views of the Middle Rhine. The path is to have 25 stations later. Four of them have now been completed around Sankt Goar.

    The paintings by William Turner are among the most important and popular works of art from the Rhine Romantic era. The British painter traveled the Rhine several times.

    The cross-media offer of the "William Turner Route" brings his works and the theme of the Rhine Romanticism from the international museum landscape back into the real landscape. Selected locations between Koblenz and Bingen mark important stations on Turner's journey through the valley. On site, accessible information boards provide clues to the origin of the masterpiece created there. They encourage you to immerse yourself in the artist's world for a moment.

    A recreated location of the painter at one of his works
    A total of 26 locations between Koblenz and Bingen mark important stops on Turner's journey through the Upper Middle Rhine Valley. He transformed the snapshots he captured here into masterful watercolors that capture his passion for the unique atmosphere and pristine nature of the landscape surrounding the poetically transfigured river. Walk-through information panels and interactive storytelling immerse the viewer in the painter's world.
