Historic Apple Mill and Wayside Cross

Highlight • Historical Site

This apple mill was used by the residents of the valley to grind and press apple fruit until 1920. It was extensively restored in 1999 and is still functional today.
In front of it there is a cross from 1783.

Trail to Ehrenburg

Highlight • Trail

Nice trail through the forest that leads diagonally to the slope.
Occasionally interspersed with slate, then slippery. Otherwise good to go.

View of Ehrenburg Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view from the valley up to the strategically located castle complex once again highlights the position of the castle lords at that time. In medieval times, building such an imposing castle was not only due to the need for a secure home, but also a visible political symbol, a demonstration of power.

Jewish Cemetery Brodenbach-Alken

Highlight • Historical Site

On the outskirts of the village, hikers and walkers will find a Jewish cemetery. The gravestones - some with legible inscriptions, others already badly weathered - bear witness to the long history of local families of the Jewish faith, which came to an abrupt and brutal end during the unjust National Socialist regime.

Rosary Chapel Brodenbach

Highlight • Religious Site

Architectural style (baroque) and the wall paintings with figures of angels and saints, which are unfortunately no longer visible today (painted over or hidden under plaster), speak in favor of the chapel being built at the end of the 18th century. The chapel was later profaned and since then has been owned by the community. In 1977 the chapel was classified by the state conservator as worthy of monument preservation.
