View of Monschau

Highlight • Viewpoint

This picturesque little town in the upper Rur Valley never ceases to fascinate. Both the town itself and the walk around the hills, which offers a variety of views of the valley, the castle, and the Haller ruins, are fascinating. For me, it's one of the most beautiful places in the Eifel/Ardennes region.

Monschau Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Shortly before reaching the old town, there is a top vantage point on the corpse alley. Nicely located, with a wonderful view of the evangelical church and the Red House, among other things.

The Laufenbach in Monschau

Highlight • River

The Laufenbach flows into the Rur in the old town of Monschau.
There are several mills and former cloth mills on the banks of the Laufenbach. The best-known buildings are the historic mustard mill from 1882, the representative residential building Haus Troistorff of the Troistorff cloth-making family and the Red House of the Scheibler family of cloth-makers.
Definitely worth seeing!

Historic Mustard Mill Monschau

Highlight • Historical Site

If you like good mustard, you absolutely have to stop by the mustard mill! In the Schnabuleum next door you can enjoy various dishes “made with or with” mustard.
