Tips
Dilapidated, extensive monastery ruins.
Nostalgically valuable, idyllically situated on a stream near a moor.
Severely damaged by fire in 1835 and in 1944 the ruins were finally destroyed during the Battle of the Hürtgen Forest.translated by

Beautiful narrow hiking trails along and through the monastery ruins!

Unfortunately, there are only remains of the wall and the monument to Werner von Merode.
