The castle ruin and fortified settlement of Kronenburg Kronenburg Castle was one of the characteristic medieval hill-castles of the Eifel built on the spur of a ridge in the Upper Kyll Valley. The self-contained impression of the castle ruin, outer bailey and fortified settlement and their adaptation to the topography make the special charm of this site. Kronenburg was first mentioned in a charter of the Abbey Stablo Malmedy in 1277. Today the locality is a touristic attraction in the Upper Kyll Valley.
On the 562 m high Schwarzenberg, hidden in the forest, there is a chapel dedicated to the Sorrowful Mother of God. The Schwarzenberg Chapel was built in 1719. The altar with the Pietà in the middle section is framed by the saints Aloysius (right) and Augustine.
Situated in the charming valley of the Wehe and surrounded by wooded heights, the district of Schevenhütte offers every opportunity for extensive hikes and peaceful walks through the landscape characterised by forests and valley meadows.
