The Hombroich missile station is a former NATO missile station that was operated from 1967 to 1990. It is therefore not shown on any map. The art collector Karl-Heinrich Müller acquired the site in 1994 and designed it with sculptures, various buildings and remarkable garden designs. The concept was presented at the 6th Architecture Biennale in Venice in 1996 and was largely implemented in this way. The Langen Foundation Museum, which shows modern art on spacious exhibition areas, is also exceptional.

The area is worth a visit with its mixture of architecture, natural landscape and the remaining military buildings.
