The Reinartzhof was later built from the St. Reinart hospice, which was formerly located on the Reinart. However, the evacuation of the Reinartzhof was announced by royal decree on June 26, 1958. Reason: As the Reinartzhof settlement is in the catchment area of the Weser dam and there is therefore a risk of water pollution, it is expropriated and must be evacuated. Within three years, i.e. by 1961, the residents were to leave their farms. With heavy hearts, the farming families moved out of the isolated hamlet one after the other. "Be that as it may, the mild pressure from above, supported by appropriate compensation payments, caused one farmer after another to emigrate and find a new home and work somewhere at the foot of the High Fens." In 1971, even the picturesque Oberhof was set on fire, and what had been spared by the fire was reduced to rubble by pickaxes and bulldozers.

By the 20th century, a hermitage (13th century) on the old pilgrimage route between Aachen and Trier had become a small settlement of 3 farms and 6 families, the Reinartzhof. Located in the middle of the lonely Venn, the settlement was largely self-sufficient, without electricity or tap water.

This inn was founded in 1813 by the German tailor Michel-Henri Schmitz. It also served as a landmark in the midst of the extensive surrounding peat bogs, where travellers often got lost. On the facade of the house there is an old bell that was rung in earlier times when there was fog etc. to give the people of the Venn orientation.

One of the beautiful rest areas where you can take a break protected from the weather.

Very nice rest stop. Numerous information boards report on smuggling between Belgium and Germany. Coffee was three times more expensive in Germany than in Belgium. The smugglers tried to immobilize the police cars with sharp iron crow's feet and the police responded with the broom Porsche, which pushed the crow's feet off the road.

Nice covered rest area that offers us welcome shelter during a rain shower.

Today it is a tourist meeting and educational center with a newly built museum, from where natural history tours and hikes can be offered and undertaken. Source: http://www.komm-mit-wandern.de/hohes-venn.html
