The
Forum
Mittelrhein
is
a
shopping
center
in
the
center
of
Koblenz
that
opened
in
2012
as
part
of
the
redesign
of
the
central
square.
Its
construction
-
like
the
redesign
of
the
square
itself
-
was
highly
controversial
in
the
city
even
before
it
was
actually
planned.
It
was
generally
doubted
that
another
shopping
center
would
be
needed
next
to
the
Löhrcenter.
There
were
also
fears
that
small
retailers
would
be
pushed
out
and
further
vacancies
would
arise
in
the
city's
shopping
streets.
Unfortunately,
the
fears
have
at
least
partially
been
fulfilled.
So
around
10%
of
the
shops
in
the
forum
are
currently
empty.
Two
important
shops,
Decathlon
and
Douglas,
have
recently
closed.
In
the
Middle
Rhine
Forum,
for
example:
Currently
there
is
only
one
real
anchor
shop
left
at
home:
Saturn.
Otherwise,
there
is
a
range
of
clothing
stores
aimed
more
at
a
young
audience
(H&M,
New
Yorker,
Jack
&
Jones,
Yeanshalle,
G-Star
Raw).
In
addition
to
a
Vapiano
branch,
Starbucks,
an
ice
cream
parlor
and
two
bakery
branches,
the
gastronomic
offering
includes
a
self-service
fast
food
area
on
the
upper
floor.
In
contrast
to
the
Löhrcenter,
the
Forum
Mittelrhein
is
not
suitable
for
weekly
shopping.
