At the end of May 1992, the fountain at the Pferdemarkt (horse market) was inaugurated on the occasion of the Old Town Festival in the brewery town of Bitburg. The bronze sculpture by Bitburg sculptor Roger Delleré is a figurative interpretation of the horse trade. It recalls the times when regularly held horse and cattle markets were still part of everyday life in the town and made a significant contribution to its economic prosperity. The work of art depicts two Bitburg natives, Klaus Schilling and Fritz Jäschke, as buyer and dealer in a horse trade, shaking hands.

A little off the cycle path you can refresh tired legs in the cold water, a towel for drying is an advantage 😅

A tranquil spot, framed by gnarled trees and rugged rock: This wooden bench sits enthroned on a natural viewing balcony above the valley. The view sweeps far across the green expanse of the Sauer Valley – protected only by a simple railing. Here, raw nature meets quiet grandeur – almost like a special kind of natural cinema. 🪵 Tip: Sit down and remain still for a moment. No photo can replace the atmosphere when the wind rustles through the branches and you can practically hear the forest breathing.

Unfortunately, one can no longer call it a waterfall; perhaps the name "Irrel Canyon" would be more appropriate? But regardless, it's a beautiful piece of nature, and nature is constantly changing. The damaged old wooden bridge has since been replaced by a suspension bridge.
