    The Pesch temple district, also popularly known as the Heidentempel, is a Gallo-Roman temple complex consisting of several buildings, which was built on the "Addig" hill between Bad Münstereifel-Nöthen and Nettersheim-Pesch in the Eifel during the 1st to 4th AD Century existed.

    Definitely worth a detour. Also a nice place for a short break.

    Cycling

    The last part of the journey by bike was quite dangerous because the path was steep and rocky. The facility itself is located in the dark deciduous forest and did not appeal to me very much. Only fragments of the pagan temple are left, the actual masonry is modern. It's all a matter of taste.
