👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎 Worst relic from the last century, a reduction in our quality of life for us residents. The noise is unbearable and the dust is a health hazard. A change of use is urgently needed, e.g. into an MTB trail or an energy park or a biotope.

There's also a circular cycling route called "7 Weiher," although I only rode part of it. It's a very beautiful area.

Blieskastel is a magnificent baroque town with a special flair. In my opinion, Blieskastel is one of the most beautiful towns in Saarland, along with Saarlouis and St. Wendel.
