The Upper Gate of the town of Ahrweiler, dating from the 13th to 15th centuries, is part of the former town fortifications and stands on the western side of the wall. Locally, it is also known as the Gisem Gate, Gisem Gate, or Walporzheim Gate, after the nearby deserted village of Gesem.

For racing cyclists, the serpentine is a delight – even if the asphalt has cracks at the apex of the curve.

My legs are smoking. A beautiful climb.

"A work of art and a monument in perfect harmony: The new stone sculpture in the small park between the HoT and Sinzig Castle commemorates cycling legend Rudi Altig and is also an aesthetic eye-catcher..." https://www.blick-aktuell.de/Berichte/In-Stein-gemeisselte-Erinnerung-an-eine-Radsportlegende-318855.html

A beautiful market square with many pretty half-timbered houses.

The Ludendorff Bridge, known as the Remagen Bridge, was a two-track railway bridge over the Rhine between Remagen and Erpel. It was commissioned for military reasons in 1916 during the First World War and named in honor of the Army Quartermaster General, Erich Ludendorff, on May 1, 1918, for the inauguration of Kaiser Wilhelm II. On March 7, 1945, at the end of the Second World War, a small vanguard of US soldiers reached the undamaged bridge and captured it. Wehrmacht soldiers tried in vain to destroy the bridge in the days following its capture, because according to the Wehrmacht leadership's plans, all Rhine bridges were to be blown up. However, less explosives (300 kg instead of 600 kg) and less efficient explosives (Donarit instead of Ekrasit) were used than planned. During the demolition, the bridge was briefly lifted from its supports. It finally collapsed on March 17, 1945, likely as a result of the demolition. The Peace Museum in the bridge towers, located since 1980, impressively displays images and documents from that time, everyday items and equipment of the soldiers fighting on the bridge, and much more. Visitors are immersed in the historical events of the Battle of Remagen at the original site and will understand the significance of capturing this bridge and the courage and determination required to face the associated real dangers, even one's own death. The bridge towers on the Remagen side are used as a Peace Museum. On the Erpel side, cultural events take place in the tunnel.

The ferry is also easy to use with skates. Getting on and off is easy, and the ramps on both banks are easy to use.
