It was inhabited until the 4th century, before presumably being destroyed by Germanic tribes. The main building (manor house) covered an area of over 3,600 square meters, and the entire estate encompassed approximately 50,000 square meters, including farm buildings and temple complexes.

The unique Malberg Palace complex consists of the so-called New House, the Old House, the arcade building, the brewery, and the chapel. The "Iron Garden" and the "Round Garden" also belong to the palace, which is situated on a mountain spur. Malberg Palace dates back to a castle mentioned as early as 1008. Nothing of the medieval building remains. In 1681, the Veyder family took over the castle and, from 1708 to 1715, had it expanded into a palace in the Venetian Baroque style by Matteo Alberti, an architect from Venice. The impressive buildings feature stucco ceilings and wood paneling, as well as tapestries and antique furniture. A unique feature is a painted wall covering depicting hunting scenes. Civil weddings can be arranged at the palace. The palace is not wheelchair accessible. Dogs are not allowed. Source: https://www.eifel-direkt.de/a-schloss-malberg

The ceremonial laying of the foundation stone for the parish church took place on May 19, 1905, and the solemn blessing took place on October 1 of the following year. The church was ready for occupancy and use. It is dedicated to St. Quirinus, first of all, and to Sts. Firminus and Ferredus. The feast of the church's patron saint is celebrated on the first Sunday in May. On June 14, 1909, the parish church of St. Quirinus received its final consecration by Bishop Dr. Michael Felix Korum of Trier. Source: https://kulturdb.de/einobjekt.php?id=620
