Moselle Valley

The Moselle Valley (French: vallée de la Moselle, pronounced [vale də la mɔzɛl]; German: Moseltal, pronounced [ˈmoːzl̩ˌtaːl] ⓘ) is a region in north-eastern France, south-western Germany, and eastern Luxembourg, centred on the river valley formed by the river Moselle.

The Moselle runs through, and along the borders of, the three countries, and drains a fourth, Belgium.

The Moselle has been promoted as a quality white wine-producing region since the nineteenth century and "Moselle wine" is produced in three countries; it is the heart of the Luxembourg wine industry,[1] and is also of the German Mosel region, and there are some vineyards in France.

The Moselle has developed a strong tourism industry around its reputation as a rural idyll.

There are no large towns in Luxembourg's part of the Moselle valley, but the main settlements are Grevenmacher, Mondorf-les-Bains, Remich, and Wasserbillig, all of which have populations in excess of 2,000 people.
