I explored the universe with my first telescope from Foto Quelle. This fascination never left me and fifty years later I have reawakened this passion. I was always drawn to areas with dark nights. And so, over time, the idea of looking for a suitable house in an area with little light developed. After a few years, our dream came true and we have now found our place in the Eifel Star Park. In 2021 I completed the training to become a certified SternenGuide SternenLandschaft Eifel. In my self-built garden observatory I would like to bring you closer to the starry sky! You are also welcome to bring your own instruments, appropriate places are available.

Spend your vacation within historic walls! Our vacation apartments are located in the over 250-year-old manor house of Vlatten Castle, in the middle of a beautiful park with old trees, medieval ruins and many enchanted corners.the history of the castle can be traced back to the Middle Ages. Initially, there were two castles in Vlatten: the upper castle and the lower castle. While the lower castle has disappeared today, the upper castle has survived over the centuries. The ruins from the 14th century, especially the impressive round tower, are now part of the picturesque park. In the 19th century, the castle was converted into a representative manor house; later, the residential building and the farmyard were separated by a wall. The two-winged residential building was given a historicizing tower on the east side in 1908, and the castle changed hands several times over the centuries until it was finally bought at auction by the industrialist Julius Rüttgers from Berlin in 1882. He gave the castle to his daughter Emilie, wife of Major General Ernst Freiherr von Gagern, in 1883. The von Gagern family still live in the castle today. A well-known member of the noble family was Heinrich Freiherr von Gagern, the president of the first German National Assembly in 1848. However, he died three years before the castle came into the possession of the family. Our vacation apartments are stylishly and comfortably furnished and ensure a pleasant indoor climate thanks to healthy building materials such as clay plaster and wood.
