    Mayen is a nice place in the Vulkaneifel – definitely worth a trip.

      Mayen is worth seeing in the city center. There is also the Genoveva Castle.

        The late Gothic castle was besieged, destroyed, and rebuilt several times over the course of its eventful history. The current complex consists of the upper castle with the 34-meter-high Golo Tower and the slightly lower outer castle. The castle is protected from the city by a large castle gate, and on the other side by the keep and a moat complex.

        The former moat is now a ring road spanned by a 20-meter-long Gothic stone bridge.

        The Genovevaburg Castle houses two exhibitions of the Eifel Museum: EifelTotal and the German Slate Mine.
