In the long-gone days of our grandparents, a central bakehouse was common for the village community. In many places, these were eventually demolished. Here in Bolsdorf, however, it has been preserved and still bears witness to the old days.

The Auberg above Gerolstein is a rocky plateau formed from dolomite and part of the impressive "Gerolstein Dolomites" nature reserve, which has been protected since 1990 and covers approximately 102 hectares. Geologically, it is a reef formed around 380 million years ago in a warm, shallow sea, exposed by karstification and folding – typical features of this Devonian limestone reef. At an elevation of approximately 360 meters above sea level, the Auberg offers spectacular views over Gerolstein, the Kyll Valley, and the entire Volcanic Eifel region – a real highlight on tours along the Eifelsteig or local circular trails such as the "Gerolsteiner Dolomiten Acht" (Gerolstein Dolomites Eight). The trail leads through narrow crevices and past bizarre rock formations, providing a true sense of discovery while hiking. Botanically, the Auberg is a valuable habitat: rare orchids, nutrient-poor grasslands, juniper, and species-rich mosses can be found on the sparse Dolomite rocks – as well as bats in protected crevices. Smaller populations also use the area as a resting, breeding, and hunting ground. For Komoot users, there are several tour options: for example, Eifelsteig stage 9 (Hillesheim–Gerolstein) or the local "Gerolsteiner Dolomiten Acht" (approx. 8 km), where the Auberg is a sublime intermediate destination. There's also a Reservoir–Auberg–Lissingen loop, an easy, family-friendly walk (approx. 4 km, 1 hour) with panoramic views and rocky outcrops.

The highlights of this tour were the varied contrasts: Small trails, beautiful views, and a visit to the town of Gerolstein. Highly recommended.

The building, the "Old Forge", now serves as a village community center and event location. But as the name suggests, the 19th century building was once used to practice a very old craft that was an essential part of any village at the time. As the craft lost more and more importance in the 20th century, the craft was abandoned and the old building became vacant. In the 1980s, the property was purchased by the town of Hillesheim and extensively renovated in 1981. Since then, it has served as the center of the village for the residents of Bolsdorf.
