Schloss Eicks

Mechernich

Since the 14th year, Eicks Castle has been a castle-like Fronhof. The castle, built in 1690, is standard type of the Rhenish aristocratic seat: 2-part moated castle with a towered, 3-winged outer bailey and separate manor house. The outer bailey of the 17th year is essentially original and was originally plastered. The gate passage with the alliance coat of arms Syberg/ Palandt is simply designed. The drawbridge is replaced by a masonry bridge arch.

The large gate of the outer bailey is open when the owners are there. The facility can be viewed well from the street. If you drive around the castle, you have a beautiful view of the baroque garden.

Burg Langendorf

Langendorf Castle was first mentioned in 1240. The oldest part of the main building dates back to the 15th century and was expanded around 1498 to include the courtrooms. The castle has been in family ownership since 1880 and was passed on to the then-20-year-old heir Manfred Vetter in 1957 - with the aim of restoring and revitalizing the heavily damaged castle. “Concert in the Barn” - from 1994 to 2010, more than 120 concerts featuring young musicians took place in the barn of the castle. The international historical fire helmet collection with approximately 300 helmets was incorporated into the foundation in 2010. The open-air stage, used only ten times, was donated to the Euskirchen district at the end of 2010 for events by schools, clubs, and others. The castle (cellar ground floor and outside) is available for group tours by arrangement.

Kronenburg

The castle ruin and fortified settlement of Kronenburg Kronenburg Castle was one of the characteristic medieval hill-castles of the Eifel built on the spur of a ridge in the Upper Kyll Valley. The self-contained impression of the castle ruin, outer bailey and fortified settlement and their adaptation to the topography make the special charm of this site. Kronenburg was first mentioned in a charter of the Abbey Stablo Malmedy in 1277. Today the locality is a touristic attraction in the Upper Kyll Valley.
