    The market square in Kelberg is a place of historical importance, because in 1795 Kelberg was named a market village. This had a legal meaning at the time, because it gave the place the right to hold markets and was considered a step towards elevation to the city. At that time Kelberg had an elevated position.

    Today you will find some information boards here about the history route that starts here, the Eifelsteig and other hiking and cycling routes as well as general information about the Kelberger Land.

      Before 1795 Kelberg was a market village. When Kelberg received market rights is not known. The term market place had a legal meaning and referred to the right granted by the sovereigns to hold markets. Larger market communities were also referred to as "market spots". Market rights can be seen as a kind of preliminary stage of city rights. It was a first important step to become a city.

      Since market law has been regulated differently since 1795, with the exception of Bavaria, the term “market” no longer has any particular legal and content meaning. The market places had a central market place in the town. This is the case in Kelberg and therefore Kelberg has had a high position in the past.

      Today's marketplace is a central information point for tourism and local recreation with signs about the historic street, the Eifelsteig and other hiking and cycling routes as well as other tourist information in Kelberger Land.

        I immediately notice the sculptures in and around the fountain. At first glance I would say that it should be "drowning people" who are halfway there in the water. Unfortunately, I can not find a sign with an information or explanation, I realize this point for my rework but unfortunately, now that I have tried to find out something about this well, for the time being fit. I have not found any information and will probably call tomorrow at the tourist information and ask, I submit the result then, if necessary.
