One of the youngest maars in the Eifel region nestles picturesquely against the small town of Ulmen with its castle ruins and church right on the shore - idyllic and simply beautiful!

The lower castle has completely disappeared. You can still see the beginning of the ring that connected the lower castle and the Ulmen city wall, a two-story outer wall of the palace, as well as a cistern and some foundation walls of other buildings. The old part of Ulmen Castle was built around 1074 AD and likely rests on the remains of a Roman settlement. In the Middle Ages, Ulmen Castle was further expanded and divided into the upper castle, whose remains of the walls still exist, and the lower castle, which extended to the banks of the maar river. Two knightly families lived in the castle, which is believed to have never been attacked or destroyed until 1673 due to its size. Only the Sun King's troops succeeded. It was rebuilt, but fell again in 1689 during the War of the Succession. However, Ulmen Castle was also rebuilt this time, with only the city wall being abandoned. With the invasion of Napoleon's soldiers, Ulmen also became French and later Prussian. The empty castle, whose last descendant died in 1801, was auctioned to a merchant from Cochem, who sold it as a quarry. When a devastating fire burned Ulmen to the ground in the 19th century, the residents of Ulmen rebuilt their houses with stones from the castle. That's why you can still see a coat of arms on some of the stables today. It wasn't until the early twentieth century that Ulmen Castle was declared a listed building and became the property of the municipality of Ulmen. The castle is always freely accessible.

An absolute highlight!!! Very friendly, delicious cake, great atmosphere, especially the garden is unique. Highly recommended!!!

Ulmen Castle Ruins: The few walls of the once stately Ulmen Castle tower over the steep bank of the Ulmen Maar. Only parts of the upper castle have been preserved for posterity.

A rare, well-maintained circuit - wonderfully relaxing and easy to enjoy, including the lively gastronomy in Ulmen.
