Ramstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Ramstein castle ruin is located on a roughly 182-meter-high colourful sandstone rock. Originally, it was created in the 10th century as a fortified farmstead and was expanded in the course of the 14th century into a feudal castle of the Electorate of Trier.

Today, the approximately 25-meter-high residential tower on the west side, as well as parts of the still towering ring walls, are mainly preserved. These still show recognizable architectural details such as seating niches, fireplaces, and remains of spiral staircases.

Eifel Cross

Highlight • Monument

A centuries-old tree, the “thick beech”, stood here at the intersection of various local hiking trails with the main hiking trail 4, the Josef-Schramm-Weg. When it had to be struck by lightning and then felled, the Trier hiking warden Peter Zimmer took the initiative at the beginning of the 1960s and, on behalf of the local group, had a six meter high wooden cross erected at the same place in the forest. In January 1964, the first Eifel Cross was inaugurated as a memorial for all deceased members of the association, which is commemorated annually on a November Sunday.

Over the decades, the wooden cross weathered, which is why it was renewed in July 2010 and inaugurated on November 17th as part of a hike with the memorial of the dead by Deacon Wilhelm Kunzem from Ehrang.

View of Burg Ramstein

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A very nice bike path along the Kyll and for long stretches along the train. Ideal for families, as the tour is suitable for sections. The Kyll-Radweg is not far from Bitburg. Trier is a first-class destination. From Bitburg direction Trier's almost exclusively downhill.
