ルール川沿いの美しいサイクリングロード

Historical overview Jülich was founded in Roman times as a road station along the Roman road from Boulogne-sur-Mer to Cologne (Via Belgica). The vicus (Iuliacum) gained a certain importance due to its strategic position at a ford on the Rur and was fortified with a castle in the 4th century. In the 5th century the town fell into Frankish hands and developed into the centre of a district, the so-called Jülichgau, from which the county and, in 1328, the Duchy of Jülich later emerged. Jülich was elevated to town status possibly in 1234. In the war against the Archbishop of Cologne, the town was destroyed in 1239. On October 14, 1279, the Counts of Jülich concluded the Peace of Pingsheim with Siegfried von Westerburg, the Archbishop of Cologne. In the 14th century, the town received new fortifications, of which the Witches' Tower and a remnant of the wall in Stiftsherrenstraße have been preserved.

The RUR is enjoying growing popularity

Always nice to cycle along the Rur

A wonderfully relaxing corner

Great trail, easy to drive!

Beautiful path partly gravel but also asphalt.

One of my favorite routes in the region. The route can be incorporated wonderfully into a circuit, because there are also roads and paths that are easy to drive on to the right and left of the Wurm.
