This Eifel view (approx. 300 metres above sea level) on the west tower, the so-called "Damenerker", of the castle offers you a distant view in a south-westerly to north-westerly direction over the middle Rur valley and the northern parts of the Eifel National Park across to the plateau of the Rur Eifel.

The Roman Marcus Victorius Polentius donated a temple dedicated to the goddess Caiva on the Munterley Plateau in 124 AD, presumably in gratitude for a victorious battle. Today the place of worship is popularly called "Juddekirchhof". The name comes from "Joddekirchhoff", i. e. "yard around the church (sanctuary) of the Jodd", where "Jodd" is synonymous with "godfather". The Celtic matrons had about the same duties as Catholic godmothers.

In keeping with its role as the church of a large district, the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is a striking landmark in the Wittlich valley in an exposed, slightly elevated position on the south-western edge of the village.

The former home and birthplace of Karl Kappes, "Im Bungert" was converted into a freezing house in 1961 and is a stop on the historic village tour.

Today there is an excellent inn, bistro and hotel with 5 rooms.
