Nickenicher Burgtor

Nickenich

The castle gate was built in 1677 and is today the only remnant of a former knight's seat.

The builder is the Provost of Mainz, Baron Heinrich Ferdinand von der Leyen zu Nickenich. The castle was on the upper half of Burgstrasse, which had been mentioned since 1528. The listed castle gate was once the entrance to the farm buildings of the castle district.

Schlosspark mit Schlösschen & Grottenpavillon

In the center of the local community is the beautifully landscaped castle park with a small castle and a pond with a grotto pavilion.

Kaiserhalle Burgbrohl

The special reason for building the Kaiserhalle in this form as a self-supporting domed hall was the need for the builder Wilhelm Bell to provide evidence that local building materials such as lime, lava sand and trass can also be used for extreme loads. At a time before the turn of the century, when cement had started its triumphal march and the mining of the tram in the Brohl valley continued to decline, such proof seemed necessary.

Hochkreuz

The Hochkreuz is located on the lava flow between Thür and Mendig. From here you can see far into the Pellenz. The high cross represents a covered crucifixion group.
