Picturesquely located in the upper Nettetal, the municipality of Hausten is framed at an altitude of about 420 m by meadows and mixed forests. The pure residential community is home to about 380 inhabitants and is located on the northern district border of the district of Mayen-Koblenz to the district of Ahrweiler. Particularly worth seeing in the district of Morswiesen is the baroque St. Anna chapel as well as the idyllically located pond.
