Pure idyll! Sassen is a beautiful little village with incredibly great old houses and farms. The observation tower is on the edge of the village.

Eifel-Guck Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is a beautiful view from the tower, and above all it is a great destination for a mini hike from the CenterParc. You can see some of the park's houses from the tower.

Gallows – Stop on the History Trail

Highlight • Historical Site

In the past, those sentenced to death were hanged or killed in other cruel ways here. The nearby Green Pond also served as an execution site. A replica wooden gallows reminds us of the dark past of this place.

Very nicely designed entrance to a former pit, the "mountain crown". Here barite was mined in two tunnels.
