Small winding streets with houses made of local limestone and carved bluestone on doors, windows and wall edges look back at you as you walk through the old town of Stolberg.

As you stroll, you take your time to look at the traditional house facades and notice that despite the old town's long history of development and the influence of the industrial era, a homogeneous appearance has emerged.

You walk through Burgstrasse, Schartstrasse, Klatterstrasse and Enkereistrasse, which were the main streets until the end of the 19th century.

When you arrive on Klatterstrasse you stand in front of the oldest surviving half-timbered house from 1529.

Next to it is the house number 12 from the 18th century, which used to be a brewery.

In his basement there was a pond (moat) from the weir that cooled the beer.
