Former Officers' Casino at Lommerskamp

Highlight • Historical Site

Historically, it is not bad that it is falling into disrepair, but as a building it is a pity that it is no longer used.

January 6, 2022,Straelen - Paesmühle / Hangmoor Damerbruch

Today's round started in beautiful winter weather 🥶 ☀️ at the seven springs in Straelen. It went through the fields to Herongen. From there we walked through the Damerbruch hillside moor on unfortunately somewhat muddy paths to the Paesmühle. The way back to the car led along the Paesmühlengraben.

The altitude profile of the tour is not displayed correctly by Komoot. The path is mostly flat. You can see, among other things, the Johanneskirche, the officers' casino of the former Venlo air base, the Damerbruch nature reserve and the Paesmühle in the Sieben Quellen natural monument.

We haven't been here yet - and that's rare for our home region. Sometimes we were pleasantly surprised, since most of the paths on the Lower Rhine are paved. The seven springs and the Paesmühle are particularly beautiful.
