ブランケンハイム周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The so-called Dreimühlen waterfall is also known as the Nohn waterfall. The name Nohn waterfall comes from the waterfall's proximity to the town of Nohn. The houses on the outskirts of Nohn are only a few hundred meters above the waterfall. Most people talk about the Dreimühlen waterfall, however. The name Dreimühlen comes from a former castle called Dreimühlen. Today, however, only the remains of the walls are said to remain. We looked for the former castle on our trip, but couldn't find anything of it. The waterfall in the Eifel is located between the towns of Üxheim, Kerpen and Nohn. Although the other large towns in the Eifel are not located here, many visitors come here. Some of them travel especially to visit the waterfall. The Dreimühlen waterfall is one of the most visited Eifel attractions. Almost every holidaymaker in the area comes to the waterfall at least once during their Eifel vacation. In addition, many day tourists travel from outside, making it the most visited waterfall in the Eifel. They all want to see the unique natural wonder.

The extremely impressive monastery church in the Eifel town of Steinfeld houses the grave of Saint Hermann-Josef, who lived and worked here as a Premonstratensian monk. Based on a legend from his childhood in Cologne - look there "Basilika Sankt Maria im Kapitol", one of the twelve large Romanesque churches in the cathedral city - you will always find fresh apples there as well as here at his high grave, which cannot be overlooked in the central aisle of the basilica, that the visitors leave here.

A very beautiful castle above a great little town. Restorations are already well advanced. Definitely worth a visit

Unique prehistoric cave located in beautiful forest.

Even if the castle cannot be visited because it is privately owned, its location high above the village of Kerpen is very impressive and gives the beautiful village a certain charm. Kerpen Castle is a so-called spur castle, which lies on a rock or mountain spur, but below the hilltop or the mountain peak, unlike the summit castle, and thus steeply above the valley. It is characterized by a terrain formation that slopes steeply on at least two sides. The place is practically at the feet of the castle. The former owner and famous Eifel painter Fritz von Wille was buried on a hill behind the castle in 1941. For a long time afterwards, it served first as a training center and finally as a rural school center; from 2016 to 2018, refugees were accommodated here. The castle currently belongs to an entrepreneurial family from Bonn and has since been used only for private residential purposes.

Very nice café right on the river

Nice little lokar with drinks and cake. Invites you to take a break

A closer look at the castle is definitely worthwhile on a hike through the historic castle town of Kerpen (Eifel). As the former place of work or domicile of the (perhaps most famous) Eifel painter Fritz von Wille, it is also an important stop for those interested in culture.
