Mit Ur-Opa Johann durch den Arensberg

May 3, 2025 - Oct 25, 2025

Zilsdorf

That was hard work with hard stones - On the way to work with great-grandad Johann, we explore the Arensberg and its surroundings together. Among other things, we look at how the mystical tunnel was created and together we go in search of clues as to how mining took place here. A walk through the volcano from a new perspective, with exciting stories and games for young and old.

The programme is aimed at families and, optionally, primary schools (3rd - 4th year). The tour sheds light on mining, volcanism and the history of the Arensberg. Sturdy footwear is required! The trail is not suitable for wheelchairs. There are no sanitary facilities.

Minimum number of participants: 4 people

Duration: approx. 2.5 hours

Price: €8.00 per person, family price: €30.00 (2 adults + 2 children), groups on request

Feuerberge der Eifel - „Der Arensberg“
Jul 15, 2025

In addition to an interactive introduction to volcanology and rock science for budding volcanologists, in this workshop we dedicate ourselves to individual accessible volcanoes and what they offer and can be seen in them. We will look for interesting stones and minerals, learn about their differences in colour, hardness and other properties and then know, for example, whether they are of volcanic origin. Sturdy shoes and (weather) appropriate clothing are recommended. Photo equipment, magnifying glass, container for rock samples are useful. Price: per participant 8,00 €, per family with children 20,00 €, Info/registration required by 4pm the day before: Alfred Graff, mobile 0172 2661284, email: vulkan-ag@arcor.de
