View of Oberhausen and the Schleidener Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great paths meander between Oberhausen and Kerperscheid and the view can be enjoyed wonderfully along the way of the cross. The vastness and the many meadows with horses and cows appeal to more.

View of the Old Glassworks in Schleiden

Highlight • Viewpoint

The glassworks was founded in 1949 as a branch of the Heinz-Glas company. From 1970 onwards, the factory was only a brown glassworks operation. On January 1, 1989, the glassworks in Schleiden was sold to the then "Nienburger Glas". Around 110 employees produced mainly wine, sparkling wine and champagne bottles on two production lines from a melting tank. The Schleiden factory was closed at the end of 2008 and production was relocated to Germersheim, 300 km away. Source: Wikipedia
