Chapel on the Mühlenberg The mountain chapel was built in 1949/50 at the suggestion of Father Calsing on the border of the three parish villages of Dockweiler, Dreis, and Betteldorf. It was intended as a collective expression of gratitude for the fact that the parish had been spared extensive war damage. Many citizens contributed to the chapel's construction. The municipalities of Dockweiler and Dreis supplied the wood, and many other citizens contributed to the chapel's construction. On July 2, 1950, the chapel was consecrated by Father Calsing in honor of Our Lady of Sorrows. From the chapel, one can enjoy a panoramic view of Dockweiler, extending to Dreis and Brück.

Super beautiful reservoir

The cattle scales in the school stable were in operation from 1937 to 1983.

A small reservoir. But water enough to enjoy.

Beautiful valley views and side mountains. Good to hike on foot.

“With the renovation of the old cattle scales and the associated exhibition room, a cultural and tourist attraction has arisen in the community. For hikers and cycle tourists a place of protection and rest, for the population a meeting point for all generations. The cattle scale was purchased by the pasture cooperative on May 10, 1937 and set up in the former school stable so that the farmers could weigh their cows, cattle and pigs intended for slaughter or for sale on site. The cattle scale was calibrated for the last time until 1983. " The furnishing of the exhibition room with historical objects from agriculture was tackled in 2015. Source: hinterweiler.de

To the chronicle of the mountain chapel: After the end of the war in 1945 there was a growing desire among the population for a place of prayer as thanks for the fact that the parish had been spared lasting war damage. The pastor at the time, Calsing, coordinated these first efforts and in 1948 the boundary between Betteldorf, Dockweiler and Dreis was chosen as the location for the chapel. A year later, cathedral builder Weyres received the order from Bonn to start planning the chapel. In the years 1949 and 1950 the chapel was built in-house. The Pieta by the sculptor Wilh. Tophinke from Brühl was donated privately. The blessing of the chapel in honor of the painful mother took place on July 2, 1950. On December 8, 1972, the original wooden figure was stolen. Since then, a plaster figure has stood here that was previously to be found on the left side altar of the parish church. Every year in May the processions from the three parish villages meet here for common May prayer. The chapel is very well maintained and a very nice place to linger and pause for a moment. In addition, you have a wonderful view of Dockweiler and the Eifel world from here. A bench in front of the chapel invites you to take a break.

The small mountain chapel below the Döhmberg is a nice place to stay. From up here you can see the village of Dockweiler with the winding Ahbach.
