Hobbit-Hütte

In the Middle Ages, Glaadt was even more important than Jünkerath, which at that time was only a hut settlement. For this reason, the counts of Blankenheim built a castle there in the 13th century, which was rebuilt into a magnificent hunting lodge at the beginning of the 17th century. However, a lightning strike in the 18th century caused it to burn to the ground.  

Monschau's motorhome parking lot near the B 258.

The e-bike charging station is available all year round.

At 658 meters above sea level, the Steling is the highest elevation in the Aachen city region. The excellent visibility was the reason why there was once even a fire watch tower on the Steling, and the view extends far to the east over the Eifel National Park.

Remarkable is the oakportal, the mosaic work inside the church and the artistic stonework.
