You just have to go up to this summit cross, it's a pity that there is no summit book.

Nice view with markers for orientation. The tower, which was built in 1902, is only 11m high, but stands on top of the 560m high Mauseberg and is thus 166m above the Gemünder Maar, guaranteeing a magnificent view of the surrounding area.

안내판이 있는 아름다운 전망. 1902년에 지어진 이 타워는 높이가 11미터에 불과하지만, 해발 560미터의 마우제베르크 정상에 위치하여 겜인더 마르보다 166미터 높습니다. 이를 통해 주변 지역의 멋진 전망을 즐길 수 있습니다.

Very nice place and viewing point at the Maarkreuz above the Schalkenmehrener Maar. With its inscription "You are called the Maar Cross, for the salvation of us and this country. Emergency year 1932", the cross commemorates severe thunderstorms and the resulting damage and crop failures.

"With an area of approx. 102 hectares, the area around the Gerolsteiner Dolomites has been a nature reserve since 1990. + occurring animal species: bat + occurring plant species: juniper, orchids, character plants calcareous grassland, grove rush-beech forest, woodruff-beech forest, orchid-limestone-beech forest Around 380 million years ago there was a warm, subtropical shallow sea here, in which mighty reefs of stromatopores - relatives of sponges - and corals formed. After the dolomitization, sinking and folding of the rocks, the Devonian deposits were lifted out again. Today's Gerolsteiner Dolomites were formed, which rise steeply above the Kylltal north of the center of Gerolstein. The rocks "Hustley", "Munterley", "Drohende Ley", "Große Kanzel" and "Auberg" characterize the cityscape from afar and form the landmark of Gerolstein. The most famous summit of the Gerolsteiner Dolomites is the "Munterley" - with a height of 482 meters - and offers a breathtaking view over Gerolstein, the Kylltal and far into the Vulkaneifel. Stone Age people, who settled here 30,000 years ago, obviously enjoyed this view, as evidenced by stone tools and bones found at the nearby Buchenloch Cave. Visiting the Gerolsteiner Dolomites can be perfectly combined with hiking the Felsenpfad - the northern part of the "Gerolsteiner Dolomiten Acht". The almost eight-kilometer round tour offers many magical places and geological traces." https://www.eifel.info/a-gerolsteiner-dolomites

The Nerother Kopf is an extinct volcano of recent date. It was formed about 15,000 years ago when the earth broke up here and glowing magma welled up from the depths of the earth. At that time, a fracture zone formed in the earth rock, which formed the origin of the volcanic chain "West Eifel". https://www.neroth.de/tourismus/nerother-kopf

The Millstone Cave is located at the summit of the Neroth Head, a wooded hill of volcanic origin east of Neroth. The entrance is just below the Freudenkoppe castle ruins at an altitude of about 640 m and can be reached via a hiking trail. The cave is 18 meters deep and its vault up to 10 meters high. It is walkable, but unlit (torch required). Wikipedia

Millstones were mined in the 18 meter deep cave at the top of the Nerother Kopf until the 18th century. The lava stone was not only mined for the production of millstones, but was also used to build the immediately adjacent Freudenkoppe Castle.
