エルケレンツの絶景の山頂・トップ6

The Rheydter Höhe was created in 1945 from rubble left behind by the bombing of the cities of Mönchengladbach and Rheydt. The bombing destroyed 65 percent of the two urban areas. In the 1950s, large amounts of household waste were dumped on the rubble mountain. To enable plants and trees to grow, a layer of humus around one to two meters high was added to the household waste. In the 1990s, this resulted in poisonous gas emissions coming out of the rubble, which are no longer noticeable today. However, about 30 meters from the plateau, the viewing platform, you can see isolated pieces of plastic bags on the serpentine walls that were washed away by rain over time. At the northern foot of the rubble mountain there is a water playground, a pond and the Rheydter city forest with barbecue areas, mini golf, a café and opportunities for other activities.
