Archäologietour Nordeifel 2026: Geheimnisvolle Befestigung

Archaeology and monument preservation in the North Eifel. Experts will provide information on this day at six selected archaeological and architectural monuments in the North Eifel about the unique features of the locations.

When studying the map, you come across the entry "Old Castle" in the Flamersheim Forest along the Speckelsteiner Alley. If you think of a medieval castle ruin, you are mistaken. It is a so-called burgus, a tower-like small fortification from late antiquity, which was part of a Roman settlement. Particularly remarkable: Here in the forest, the small, rectangular structure of earthworks and ditches is clearly visible in relief!

Program: Tours of the Roman burgus – archaeologists explain the site. The burgus in a 3D model. Archaeological sites in the
forest and their threats.
Catering: sandwiches and sheet cakes from the bakery & kiosk at the leisure park

Please note: uneven terrain, sturdy footwear required. Limited parking is marked on site.
