UNESCO sites in western Germany

Western Germany boasts a impressive list of world heritage sites - Essen is home to what is surely the finest coal mine in the world, a number of castles and the famous Loreley rock are found along the romantic Upper Middle Rhine Valley, and impressive cathedrals await in Aachen, Cologne and Speyer. Trier meanwhile, is home to a number of Roman monuments, and the sheer variety of Germany's natural and cultural heritage is well illustrated by the Roman Limes, Messel Pit Fossil Site, Augustusburg and Falkenlust Palaces in Brühl, the famous abbey in Lorsch and Völklingen Ironworks, the largest ironworks in the Saarland.
