    Tips

    February 18, 2020

    Kahlenberg was a residential area in the municipality of Kürten. It was deserted in the 1950s. The place was on the so-called Bergerhöhe on the border to Wipperfürth, between Dicke and Häcksbilstein. In 1987 the site was completely leveled. There is today the north-eastern tip of the Kürten golf course. The Kürtener Bach flows nearby.

    There is a linden tree as a registered natural monument, a wayside cross and a small plaque as a reminder of the place.

      A place that no longer exists: Until 1950, Kahlenberg was on the so-called Bergerhöhe on the border with Wipperfürth.

          The stone slab in front of the cross used to be the house stone (Dürpel) in front of a house in Kahlenberg. A look at the areas north of the linden tree gives an idea of where the gardens around the houses once were.
