The Moselle ((フランス語:Moselle), ; (ドイツ語:Mosel); (ルクセンブルク語:Musel)) is a river flowing through France, Luxembourg, and Germany. It is a left tributary of the Rhine, which it joins at Koblenz. A small part of Belgium is also drained by the Moselle through the Sauer and the Our. Its name comes from the Latin ''Mosella'', meaning the "Little Meuse" (''Mosa'' in Latin). The river gave its name to two French départements: Moselle and Meurthe-et-Moselle. ==Geography== The source of the Moselle is at the western slope of the Ballon d'Alsace in the Vosges mountains. The Moselle flows through the Lorraine region, west of the Vosges. Further downstream, in Germany, the Moselle valley forms the division between the Eifel and Hunsrück mountain regions. Its total length from source to mouth is approximately . Towns along the Moselle River are: * in France: Épinal, Toul, Pont-à-Mousson, Metz, and Thionville * in Luxembourg: Schengen, Remich, Grevenmacher, and Wasserbillig * in Germany: Trier, Bernkastel-Kues, Cochem, and Koblenz 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moselle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
