20의 니데리센가지 명소 & 주요 장소

the waterfall... artificially created during the construction of the railway 150 years ago, when a loop was shortened to gain building land. there are signs, but there isn't normally that much water. A local attraction.

Directly behind the Sieg waterfall, some smart and creative people have opened the ELMORES beer garden and lounge on the old copper works site. There are many bizarre things to discover. The break is also enriched with many tasty snacks or waffles and cakes in the afternoon. If you like, you can also enjoy one of the numerous well-made cocktails. We had only planned a short break and ended up staying at this great location for 90 minutes. On this bike tour, in our opinion, an absolute must.

large castle ruins that can either be climbed from Windeck or conquered from Schladern on a walk

The Sieg waterfall in Schladern was created during the construction of the railway from Cologne to Giessen in 1857 and 1858. The loops that the Sieg still makes through the idyllic landscape today posed a number of problems for the engineers. These were solved by energetic interventions in nature. They blasted away parts of a mountain and gave the river a new course. The original Sieg loop was closed down and partially filled in for the railway line. In order to compensate for the gradient, the waterfall was finally created, which visitors today admire as a “natural spectacle”. The waterfall cascades down over four meters in several stages over a width of 84 meters. There is a beer garden right next to it. Bikers only meet there on weekends, which means it is quite loud.

It can be doubted that the RTL production “Demon Wedding” was a high point in the 800-year history of the castle. The symbol of the municipality of Windeck in the Siegtal has seen completely different things since it was first mentioned in 1174 as “Castrum novum in windeke”. The castle was destroyed several times in later centuries and threatened to deteriorate completely before the Siegkreis had the Palas wall rebuilt and the keep secured in the 1960s. Archaeological investigations uncovered a floor plan that gives an idea of the imposing dimensions of the castle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6gaSR98lRg

The ascent to the "summit" is worth it - the path is very beautiful, natural and the view from above is simply fantastic - as is the entire World Heritage nature trail. Good shoes and especially good surefootedness in wet weather are advantageous ;-).

Nice, sunny vantage point with a view of Nister and Nistertal
