From here you can also see the Herrstein Castle diagonally opposite. But it is privately owned and cannot be viewed.

The “Strom-Mühle” at “Burg Herrnstein” is worth a hike / visit.

Just outside the municipality border near Bröleck / Büchel, another milestone in terms of “local climate protection” can be seen. NRW Environment Minister Remmel recently inaugurated Count Nesselrode's water power plant. The "new" mill fits perfectly into the Bröltal and meets all the requirements of nature conservation. In the inlet, a rake with a rod spacing of 12 mm should ensure that even smaller fish do not get into the turbine.

If you see the Turbinen-Haus on the Bröl, you don't even believe that at least 80 households can be supplied with clean electricity here, and under good conditions more than 100 households.

The mill is a small hydroelectric power station that produces electricity for 80-100 households.
