The site of the Federal Horticultural Show 2011 in Koblenz comprises three individual core areas for exhibitions and showcase attractions. It stretches from the Electoral Palace to the Blumenhof courtyard between the old town and Deutsches Eck and ends at Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. All three core areas will remain as permanent features after 2011, enhancing the town with attractive recreational spaces. The spectacular aerial cable car across the Rhine will be a unique connecting element, linking the core areas on both sides of the river.
