🏰 **Rodemack – A Medieval Village Gem in Lorraine** **Rodemack** is one of the most beautiful villages in France (*Les Plus Beaux Villages de France*) – a lovingly preserved **medieval ensemble** near the border with Luxembourg and Germany. Surrounded by an almost completely preserved **city wall**, the town transports visitors back to centuries past. 🚪 Narrow streets, sandstone-colored houses, the **Château de Rodemack**, the **Porte de Sierck** city gate, and the well-kept **monastery garden** make the town an atmospheric destination for strolls and photo tours. 🎭 In summer, **historical festivals**, markets, and cultural events take place regularly – always with local charm. **Tip:** It's worth arriving early – then Rodemack lies peacefully in the morning sun and reveals its full charm. Ideal for a leisurely tour with historical flair.

🏰 **Château de Rodemack – Fortress of the 1,000-Year-Old Town** Rodemack Castle is the historic heart of the medieval village of Rodemack, also known as the "Carcassonne of Lorraine." The fortress dates back to the **12th century** and has been expanded over centuries – with castle walls, round towers, and moats. 🧱 Particularly impressive is the almost completely preserved city wall that connects the castle complex to the town. Today, parts of the complex are accessible – including the gardens, bastions, and remains of the manor house. 🌿 Surrounded by parks and ancient walls, the area invites you to take a stroll through history. **Tip:** Guided tours and medieval festivals take place here in the summer – ideal for a day trip with flair. The visit can be perfectly combined with a walking tour of the charming village of Rodemack.

🛡️ **Ouvrage de Kobenbusch – Mighty Fortification of the Maginot Line** The **Ouvrage de Kobenbusch**, located south of Cattenom near the Luxembourg border, is one of the large underground fortifications of the **Maginot Line**. It was built between 1930 and 1935 and consisted of several combat blocks, underground connecting tunnels, a barracks, ammunition depots, and machine rooms – on several levels, anchored deep in the limestone. ⚙️ Particularly noteworthy: The technical systems were designed to be self-sufficient for months – including power generation, ventilation, a kitchen, and a hospital. The fort was occupied without a fight during World War II, continued to be used in part after the war, and is now privately owned. 🚷 It's **not open to the public**, but some ventilation towers and blockhouses are still visible in the forest near the D64 road (between Cattenom and Berg-sur-Moselle). **Tip:** For Maginot fans, a walk through the forest is worthwhile – with a little research, you'll find several bunker remains. Respect barriers, as some entrances are unstable or secured.

🚧 **Barrage du Lac du Mirgenbach – The Technical Heart of the Lake** At the southern end of **Lac du Mirgenbach** is the **dam (barrage)**, which serves to regulate the water and cool the nearby **Cattenom Nuclear Power Plant**. The facility is not open to the public, but is easily visible from the paths around the lake. 🌊 The dam marks the transition between technology and nature: Here, the water flows in controlled channels, creating an exciting interplay of industrial function and scenic tranquility. **Tip:** Those who walk the circular path around the lake have a good view of the dam from the eastern shore – particularly interesting for technology enthusiasts and landscape photographers.

Or Klingelbach? Magnificent single track with a beautiful climb and descent, a bit technical, and a short section rolling over the stream. Can be ridden in both directions.

Also often called Little Carcassonne, after the model from southern France. There is certainly a certain similarity.

Some photos 📷. The route is very varied, starting from Rodemack, the little Carcassonne of Moselle.
