Tips

Peter jetzt sehr oft mit Ecki

Hiking

This is a place steeped in history that also feels a little gloomy. But its transformation from the Nazi cadre forge, via a military training area inaccessible for decades, to a valuable memorial in a wonderful national park is definitely worth a visit.

Hiking

Unfortunately I have only one photo from the old swimming pool, where the elite was trained for the Olympic Games. Very worth seeing the complete system with the information from past times. In the mind's eye you can see the past alive.

Hiking

In the middle of the Eifel National Park, this structure towers out of the forest. Here you can experience history and it is really worth a visit.
