허스도르프‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 동굴

13세기에 지어진 보존 상태가 좋은 이중 성곽입니다.

버트라다부르크는 퀼탈의 뫼를렌바흐 위에 인상적으로 자리 잡고 있습니다. 오늘날의 성곽은 아마도 13세기 말에 지어졌으며 1331년에 처음으로 문서에 언급되었습니다. 특히 눈에 띄는 것은 오늘날에도 성곽의 모습을 결정짓는 강력한 이중 탑문입니다. 카롤루스 대제가 이곳에서 태어났다는 전설이 성곽을 둘러싸고 있지만, 역사적으로 입증되지는 않았습니다. 이 성은 오늘날에도 사람이 살고 있으며, 따라서 특정 시간에만 부분적으로 방문할 수 있습니다.

Lissingen Castle near Gerolstein is a fascinating Komoot highlight for cyclists and culture enthusiasts in the Volcanic Eifel region. Perched high above the Kyll River, the upper and lower castles tell a vibrant history, ranging from Roman origins and a medieval moated castle to today's successful restoration and use. Originally founded as a Roman settlement around the 2nd century, the first castle was built between the 10th and 13th centuries. It was first documented in 1212, as the property of the knightly family of Liezingen. The castle was more than just a fortified structure: moats fed by the Kyll and Oosbach rivers made it a true moated castle. In 1559, the property was divided into the lower and upper castles – a situation that continues to this day. In the 17th century, the Lower Castle received its current Baroque-Renaissance manor house and characteristic tithe barn. During the Napoleonic era, the right of lordship was lost, but later both parts of the castle were reunited. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the complex served as an agricultural and dairy center, including its own small power plant from 1906. Today, after extensive restoration, the Lower Castle is a living open-air museum with a castle courtyard, mill (including the court bakery), manor house, barns, mill race, and a historic power plant. Visitors can book guided tours, sample bread baked in a stone oven, or attend events such as weddings and exhibitions. A sculpture trail in the castle meadows completes the experience. The Upper Castle, a private residential and cultural complex, is also privately owned. Guided tours and vacation rentals are available upon request. Lissingen Castle is an ideal stopover for cyclists on the Kyll Valley Cycle Path or Eifel tours: located directly on the trail, with parking nearby and refreshment options. Visitors not only enjoy the picturesque architecture, but also experience the transformation from Roman origins to monastic fiefdom and commercial agricultural operation to today's living cultural heritage. Practical information: The lower castle can be visited regularly almost year-round (please check opening hours and guided tours in advance), the upper castle only by appointment. Food and drink are available at the castle mill/court bakery – perfect for a rest stop while cycling through the Eifel.

A small detour to the bridge is not wrong because a small café is less than 50m away

I would like to see this castle from the inside!

Super steep ascent and descent to the castle, with the turbocharged e-bikes and be careful on the descent.

Situated on a mountain spur projecting into the Nims Valley, Schönecken Castle had the task of securing the southern border of the territory of the Prüm Prince Abbey and controlling the Bitburg-Prüm road leading through the valley. Its founders were the Counts of Vianden, who were mentioned as Prümer bailiffs (patrons) as early as 1132. The construction of the castle may have been started as early as the 12th century, but the first half of the 13th century is more likely. Source: https://www.eifel.info/a-burgruine-schoenecken

Beautiful view and wonderfully suitable for a break on a longer round.
