Large areas of the Fen landscape are formed as raised and fens, which is where the name comes from: Venn, Fenn (Dutch Veen) for moor.

Purely geologically, the High Fens is neither part of the Northern Eifel nor the Ardennes, even if both are said again and again. It forms the core of a large, vault-like arch with the oldest layers. Geologists have coined the term “Stavelot massif” for the area.

A very beautiful view of the castle, which appears like a fairytale palace on the ridge. In the summer months, this is probably the only place where you can get a distant view of Reinhardstein Castle through the light canopy of leaves.

"When Franz-Georg von Metternich-Ochsenhausen sold Reinhardstein Castle in 1812, its fate seemed sealed. From then on, the castle was used as a quarry. What was left of the building 150 years later thrilled Professor Overloop. The scholar turned the ruins over with stone starting in 1970 Re-erect the stone. He used comparable buildings in the nearby Eifel as a model. Today Reinhardstein Castle sits on the rocky spur as proudly as it did in its heyday. Inside the castle there is an impressive collection of furniture, weapons and tapestries that can be viewed ." https://www.ostbelgien.eu/de/fiche/castle/reinhardstein

"In 1354, Duke Wenceslaus of Luxembourg gave Reinhard von Weismes permission to build a castle on this site. Since the von Weismes family had no successors, the castle successively became the property of the lords of Zivel, Brandscheid and Nassau. Through the marriage of Anne of Nassau to Wilhelm von Metternich in 1550, the castle became the property of this important family from the Rhineland until the French Revolution. In 1812, Count Metternich, the father of the future President of the Congress of Vienna, sold the castle, which, abandoned and uninhabited, fell into disrepair over time. In 1965, Jean Overloop discovered the castle ruins almost by accident and, in his own words, it was like “love at first sight”. Within eighteen months, with the support of some enthusiastic colleagues and the expertise of regional craftsmen, he managed to rebuild Reinhardstein." https://www.reinhardstein.net/de/le-chateau
