    In the Eifel Museum you can learn about the history of the Eifel and its personalities. On several floors there are the topics of landscape, people & landscape, faith & superstition and underground there is the topic of geology.
    During the Eifel Museum's opening hours you can climb the tower of Genovevaburg and enjoy the panoramic view over Mayen.

      The Genovevaburg was built in 1280 by the Archbishop of Trier, Heinrich von Finstingen.
      It is now the Eifel Museum.
      The Sacred Heart Church can be seen behind the well-preserved city wall.
      The Mayen Upper Gate can be seen from the bridge of the Genovevaburg.
