Glessener Höhe Ascent

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Don't trust anyone who claims that the Glessenerhöhe is just an overburden heap. fake news! The "Monte Glessano" is the place of pilgrimage for cyclists in the otherwise flat west …

Brauweiler Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

If you have leisure, you should definitely drive through the park to see the Romanesque abbey church from the choir side. That is much more impressive than the baroque side of the street.
