Koblenz station should not be confused with Koblenz Dorf station, which is situated rather closer to the centre of Koblenz.
Because Koblenz is situated between the Aar and Rhine rivers at their confluence, the station is adjacent to two major railway bridges. The Waldshut–Koblenz Rhine railway bridge carries the Turgi to Waldshut line across the Rhine into Germany, whilst the Koblenz Aar railway bridge carries the line to Stein Säckingen over the river Aar.
