Mayen has a beautiful old town, with well-preserved mills and a Vogelsturm tower, as well as large sections of the city wall with its restored battlement, accessible all the way to Genovevaburg Castle. Genovevaburg Castle, above the market square, with its 34-meter-high Golo Tower, still dominates the cityscape today.
