    Around the Rur near Hückelhoven - industrial culture and crafts in transition

    On this tour you will experience the past and yet lively era of coal mining and discover numerous scenic and cultural gems.

    The Rur shapes Hückelhoven. The river flows through the city from southeast to northwest. Surrounded by meadows and fields, rows of trees and strips of woodland, the Rur forms a green-blue ribbon in the plain. Once feared because of its frequent floods, the Rur has now been tamed and is an invaluable recreational and adventure for the city.

    The place name Hückelhoven with its ending in -hoven suggests that the town was founded in the Carolingian to late Carolingian period (8th/9th century). However, modest grave finds from the northern edge of the town from the 6th century indicate that settlement began in the early Middle Ages.
