    On the Heislei above Altenahr, the Black Cross is located at a popular vantage point overlooking Altenahr, the ruin of the Are Castle and the Devil's Hole.

    Jacob Caspary from Altenahr set there on 11 April 1865 for the first time a wooden cross on.

      A great viewpoint on a slightly slanted rock face surrounded by a railing and the black cross in the middle. Two benches invite you to linger and offer views of Ahrweiler and the hills around it. In clear weather, especially in the colorful autumn a real "high" enjoyment.

        Very nice view from the Black Cross.
        The ascent is demanding and requires good surefootedness
        but very nice.
