On the place name sign below the place name is the sentence "place of the future". A full-bodied sentence for a "ghost village" that is only inhabited by a few people. The future will show what the "place of the future" looks like.

Morschenich (Dürener Platt Muschenich) is a district of the municipality Merzenich in the district Düren, North Rhine -Westphalia. The site is located in the future mining area of the open pit Hambach and must give way to it in the future. Since 2015, the residents have been relocated to the newly-built Morschenich-Neu.
