For centuries, the organ has rightly been considered the queen of instruments. It is the largest and, in most cases, the most magnificent instrument, often equipped with the tonal volume of an entire orchestra. A queen of a very special rank is the great organ of the Abbey Church of Himmerod. This organ is not only the most important and imposing in the entire region, it also made history in post-war German organ building. To this day, this organ, built in 1962 by the venerable Bonn organ building firm of Johannes Klais, is considered a prime example of innovative organ building, a successful synthesis of classical craftsmanship and the challenges of contemporary, modern organ building.

The monastery church is worth a visit after the first 9.5 km, which lead through the forest. You can mostly walk in the shade of the trees, but you'll arrive at the church. Yesterday, there was a craft market there with interesting offerings. The monastery shop also has some lovely items (it has its own fish farm). The rest of the route follows a path along the Salm River back to Molitorsmühle. A great hike!

Very interesting complex with a lot of history. It is a great place to go hiking and also to run northwest.
