Understand
After the withdrawal of Roman troops in the 5th century, the Roman settlement of Remacum turned gradually into Remich. It grew over time but got destroyed by Normans in 882. Fragments of the medieval fortifications, such as the Saint Nicolas gate, are still visible today. In 1687 most of the town's fortifications were demolished by the army of Louis XIV (of France). Various coats of arms and guild symbols can still be found on some houses in Remich.
Get around
The bicycle is the preferred mode of transport by tourists. Rentabike Miselerland is by far the most used service for renting bikes, having a handful of locations at which you can rent and return your bike located along the Moselle.

Fuesend Karneval is a three-day-long celebration of Carnaval, which is notable for its special events: Stréimännchen, the burning of a male effigy from the Moselle River bridge. This event symbolises the burning and doing away with winter. The second special event is the Buergbrennen bonfire that closes the celebration. The Fuesend Karneval also has a parade.

Remich (lussemburghese: Réimech) è un comune del Lussemburgo sud-orientale con lo status di città. È il capoluogo del cantone di Remich, nel distretto di Grevenmacher. Remich si trova sulla sponda sinistra della Mosella: il fiume segna il confine fra Lussemburgo e Germania. Il comune è quello con il territorio più piccolo in Lussemburgo. Nel 2005, la città di Remich, capoluogo del comune che si trova nella parte orientale del suo territorio, aveva una popolazione di 2.883 abitanti. La principale attrattiva turistica della città sono i vigneti e la produzione di vino, molto diffusi nella valle della Mosella, ma che nella città sono stati sfruttati intensivamente per attrarre visitatori.
