Kreuzberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Here you have a beautiful view of the castle Kreuzberg, which would provide without any problem material for an exciting history soap. Including fierce family struggles over possession of the castle, fierce destruction by war to the story of a Hitler plot conspiracy, which failed because the detonator of a bomb in the unheated luggage part of an aircraft froze. In the end, the castle got into marriage by marriage to the family of Boeselager, who still owns it today and who still lives in it. This castle is the only inhabited in the whole Ahr valley. This in turn means: the view from the outside is all that you can see. Unless you intend to marry: then you can do this in the castle chapel at the foot of the castle.

Insul Tunnel

This wooden walkway takes you across a wetland biotope. With a little patience, you can spot or at least hear one or two of the biotope's inhabitants.

In the Sahrbachtal, the mining of lead, zinc, iron and silver ores took place in Roman times. Until the 1940s, there was still mining here. Some of the relics are still in good condition today, like this one here. Instead of miners, however, he is only populated by bats, who feel in the dark, damp studs well!)

Even 2 years after the flood disaster, the Ahr Valley is a huge construction site. So much is broken here and not rebuilt.
At the edges of the facades you can see how high the water flowed through here, actually unimaginable.
The Ahr Valley Cycle Path has been given brand new replacement cycle paths for the sections that have been …
