The Erlenbrunnen (also called "Erlebuhr", "Saurebuhr" or "Eedel" (after a nearby quarry)) is located between Bell and Mendig and was built in 1809. It is on the route of the "Traumpfad - Four Mountains Tour".
The romantic and bizarre site in the Gutenbach valley with its water basin and fountain, circular paths, steps, footbridges and terraces was built in the 19th century. A "Lauschkurbel" ("audio crank") provides information about the history and special features of the Felsenweiher.

War memorial Stadtkyll
Stadtkyll
Open today
The Stadtkyll war memorial was erected in 1934. The memorial was designed by Professor Emil Fahrenkamp, an architect and university lecturer who was head of the art academy in Düsseldorf from 1937 to 1946. It commemorates the 30 soldiers from Stadtkyll who lost their lives in the First World War. Their names are engraved on the sarcophagus in the memorial crypt.
The view from the lookout tower “Landesblick” is impressive: The Maar lake glistens around 200 metres below, gently embedded in the largest Maar funnel in the Eifel. However, only part of the 1,700 metres long basin is covered with water.
