Coming from the top of the Moselhöhenweg by bike, you'll have a fantastic view of Ürzig and the Moselle. From here, you also have several options for cycling to Ürzig.

The square is characterized by its unique grace and dignity, setting it apart from other market squares in Germany, as it combines attractive coziness with carefree cheerfulness, thus becoming the town's living room. It also serves as its ballroom, the focal point and heart of its life. The 400-year-old half-timbered houses, the Renaissance Town Hall (1608), the St. Michael's Fountain (1606), and the much-admired, charming "Pointed House" (1416) reflect the living poetry of the Middle Ages. The filigree work of the fountain grille, the ornaments and colorful beam drawings in the half-timbering of the houses, and the ornate weather vanes on the roof gables still bear eloquent witness to the town's former prosperity and history.

The Bridge Gate of Traben-Trarbach on the Moselle River is the town's landmark and stands on the southern bank of the Moselle Bridge. Designed by Bruno Möhring as a decorative bridge closure, it has housed a café-restaurant since its construction. In the 1960s, a renovation added a gallery with temporary exhibitions.

Here you can see the Zeltinger Sundial. The term Zeltinger Sundial refers to a German vineyard in Zeltingen, a district of the municipality of Zeltingen-Rachtig on the Moselle. The wines grown on this 21.5-hectare single vineyard (predominantly Riesling) are renowned throughout the region. The site is steep and slopes south-southwest. The vines thrive on Devonian and slate soils. The Zeltinger Sundial single vineyard is part of the Münzlay large vineyard. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeltinger_Sonnenuhr
