The historic town center is definitely worth a visit. The narrow streets and old half-timbered houses make you feel like you've been transported back to the Middle Ages.
The Christmas market, which takes place every year on the first weekend in Advent, is well known far beyond Reifferscheid.

Nice little old town. In the Burgring, but also in the lower village, there are a lot of really well-kept and well-preserved old half-timbered houses. As part of the competition "Our village should become more beautiful - the competition is now called "Our village has a future", Reifferscheid has received several awards at district level.

Very romantic place with ruined castle, whose tower can be climbed, there are cafes and many pretty houses and corners ...
