The Laufenburg was built in the 12th century by the Dukes of Limburg. Since the 17th century it has only existed as a ruin. In 1895 the battlements of the round corner towers were renewed. The current restaurant is closed on Mondays.

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

The RurUfer cycle path is a long-distance cycle path that runs from the source in the High Fens near Botrange in Belgium through the Eifel to the mouth of the Maas near Roermond in the Netherlands. You cycle for over 170 kilometers through hilly forests and idyllic landscapes, always following the Rur. Along the way you pass through many villages worth seeing and there is always something interesting to discover. This makes the RurUfer cycle path a very varied cycling experience: https://www.netreisetagebuch.de/rurufer-radweg/
