"Black Bridge - Le Pont Guerrier (French) - Lu Pont Guèryé (Walloon), these are the three terms used by the Liège University professor Dr. A. Boileau, a well-known Germanist and dialect researcher, in his work "Enquête dialectale sur la Toponymie Germanique du Nord-Est de la Province de Liège" to describe the bridge over the Hill (Pont sur la Helle), built by a forestry inspector named Guerrier, whose iron girders were painted black." grenzecho.net/17059/artikel/2019-07-06/geschichte-1815-wurde-die-hill-zum-grenzfluss

"The Hill rises near the highest elevation in Belgium, the Botrange. It flows into the Weser (Vesdre) in the lower town of Eupen, 25 km further north.
The most important tributaries are the Spoorbach and the Soor. The confluence of the Hill and Spoorbach is 10 km downstream near the town of "Herzogenhügel". This place is of interest for geological reasons; the only rock of volcanic origin in eastern Belgium can be found in a quarry. Shortly before Eupen, at the place called "Schwarze Brücke", the Soor flows into the Hill. About half of its way, the Hill flows through the High Fens-Eifel Nature Park."

"The Weser (also Weserbach; French: Vesdre; Walloon: Vesse; Dutch: Vesder) is an almost 70 km long right tributary of the Ourthe in Belgium. The first half of it runs in the German-speaking part of Belgium, then in the French-speaking area. Two kilometers of the upper reaches are in Germany..."

Behind the houses on “Haasstraße” and restored after the flood, there is a beautiful, newly landscaped park that invites you to stroll.
