Around the Rur near Hückelhoven - Industrial culture and crafts in transition

On this tour you will experience the past and yet lively era of coal mining and discover numerous scenic and cultural gems.

The Rur shapes Hückelhoven. The river flows through the city from southeast to northwest. Surrounded by meadows and fields, rows of trees and strips of woodland, the Rur forms a green-blue ribbon in the plain. Once feared because of its frequent floods, the Rur has now been tamed and is an invaluable recreational and adventure for the city.

Churches, castles and manor houses from the Middle Ages can be found in almost every one of the 11 towns. But the history goes back further. Around 2000 years ago, legionaries, merchants and craftsmen traveled along Roman roads through what is now Hilfarth. They probably brought the art of basket making, which is still cultivated today, to the region back then. Agriculture and crafts formed the structure in the last century

The nice thing about this area is that there are signs pointing to attractions, restaurants and places to stay. That's a real highlight that other regions should take a look at.

Rur Bridge at Adolfosee

Highlight • Bridge

The lake is a quarry pond, created as a result of sand and gravel quarrying from the late 1960s to the 1980s. In the initial phase it was popularly called "Lago Laprello" (the quarry pond in the Heinsberg district of Lieck is also called Lago Laprello, after the gravel mining company), it then got its official name after Adolf Freiherr Spies von Büllesheim from Ratheim, who belonged to this was a member of the Bundestag for the district of Heinsberg at the time.
