Historischer Ortskern Aremberg

The Lava Dome is a very special museum in the Volcano Park in the East Eifel. On 700 square metres it is not "museum-like", but spectacular - for children and adults, for absolute newcomers and for those who are pre-informed about volcanism. In the "Land of Volcanoes", a multimedia show tells the story of two violent volcanic eruptions. Images, sounds and projections let you relive them - up close and intense, but fortunately virtual. The "volcano workshop" is a genuine small science centre. At experimental stations, visitors gain a vivid impression of the processes inside the earth. The "Time of the Volcanoes" lets stones speak: Anyone who touches them can hear and see the great eruptions of times gone by. Current seismological data and images from webcams around the world are particularly exciting. And in the round cinema, a fictitious news programme takes your breath away, because here it becomes clear what another eruption of the Laacher See volcano would mean.

The Catholic parish church of St. Johannes Evangelist was built in 1867/68 by August Rincklage and Caspar Clemens Pickel according to plans drawn up in 1855 by the Cologne cathedral builder Friedrich von Schmidt.

The Maria Martental Pilgrimage Church lies above the valley of the Endert, a tributary of the Mosel.

From this "Eifel view" (455 metres above sea level) you have a panoramic view in a north-easterly direction on a clear day over the village of Vossenack and the plateau of the Rur-Eifel region as far as the Cologne Bay.
