マンデルバッハタールの洞窟・トップ16

現在、礼拝堂は改修中です。中に入ることはできますが、中は空っぽです。その後、イベント会場としても使用される予定です。

For me this is one of the sensations in Saarbrücken! The cave and the recesses created later are still in great condition. There is also a bench under a ledge. If only it weren't for the car noise (like it was 2,000 years ago). "In pre-Christian and Roman times, a Mithraic cult was practiced on the Halberg - by the Gallo-Romans who lived here or the Roman soldiers of the nearby garrison. For this purpose, they created a barrel-vaulted mithraeum in the sandstone on the western slope of the Halberg, which is known in older literature as the "Heidenkapelle " is called. After Christianization in the 6th century, the grotto was incorporated into Christian worship. This means that the Halberg is possibly the oldest Christian place of worship in the region. The remains of this site can still be admired here and are in a relatively well-preserved condition." https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halberg_(Saarland)

From the platform that was placed on the ruins a few years ago, you can see as far as the Donersberg when the weather is nice.

Visit to the Kirkel local history museum

View of the castle in Kirkel

You can't cycle directly to the castle, but you can go around it. It is worth it!

A few of these nice fellows can also be found in the Kirkeler forest

Very interesting museum below the castle
