Tips
A large mosaic picture (4m wide, 7m high) is an eye-catcher on Merodeplatz. The artist Margarita Rieth created the mosaic with stones from Ravenna in Italy over a year.

The image of Mary was made in 1970 by Margarita Rieth from 15 hundredweight stones. Source: eifel.info/wandern/wanderwege/a-dorfspaziergang-vlatten. The impressive mosaic is really worth seeing and a worthwhile photo opportunity.
