Beschreibung

The slate quarry hiking trail, a hiking highlight on the famous "Moselle Slate Route".


The impressive Kaulenbach valley lies between the Eifel villages of Müllenbach, Laubach and Leienkaul. From 1695 to 1959, the best quality roofing slate in the slate mountains on the left bank of the Rhine was mined here. The slate quarry hiking trail, a hiking highlight on the famous "Moselle Slate Route", leads us through the "Kaulenbach Valley Slate Region" . The hike can also be started from all three villages. Before starting the hike along a scenically unique route, past old mine entrances, building remains and unique flora and fauna, you have the opportunity to visit a small, permanent exhibition and documentation on the subject of slate mining in the Schieferlandhalle Müllenbach.

The mainhighlights of the tour are

  • Route of the former slate mine railroad (little train)
  • Julius gallery
  • Colonia" pit
  • Herrenwiese with the restored slit house
  • Maria Schacht" pit
  • Maria Schacht" viewing point

    History comes alive at the LVR open-air museum in Kommern: Chickens run around between the houses and peck at the ground, cattle graze peacefully in the pasture and fresh bread smells waft from the bakery. Visitors can wander through five different assemblies and their buildings. The journey through time in the Rhineland begins at the end of the 15th century and ends with the 20th century. Exhibitions and various festivals and markets, such as the Anno Dazumal fair, round off the museum experience.
