Bernkastel-Kues Market Square

Highlight • Historical Site

A small market square with a fountain and beautiful half-timbered buildings. It's hard to know where to look first. There are plenty of wine bars and nice restaurants. On the way to Landshut Castle (Karlstrasse) you'll find one of the most striking half-timbered houses on the right, the Spitzhäuschen.

Bernkastel Old Town Square

Highlight • Settlement

Very nice old town. Even a bicycle cellar is available free of charge. Wheelchairs lockers 👍The place is overflowing. Also Kues is worth a detour. Here start many Mosel ships.

A very beautiful little town, both in summer and winter. Beautiful half-timbered houses, narrow streets, the opportunity to take a boat trip on the Moselle, and hike to the castle ruins. There's no chance of getting bored here.

There are wonderful half-timbered buildings to see here. Some have 5 floors, which is rather rare.

The Tiefenbach, which has its source between Longkamp and Gonzerath, meanders through a narrow valley to Bernkastel and flows into the Moselle there. Even though it is only a small stream, it forms an impressive waterfall that roars beautifully, especially after heavy rainfall. Directly above the waterfall, the Tinkel Chapel, which is well worth seeing, stands on a rock.

Tinkel Chapel Above the Waterfall

Highlight • Religious Site

Pretty little chapel on the slate rock above the waterfall. The stairs should be climbed with caution, as they are often slippery! The crevice in the rock at the waterfall, whose jagged profile can be interpreted as a chicken's head and is therefore called "det Hinkel", has given the chapel towering above it the name Tinkel Chapel.

June 23, 2024,Sightseeing Bernkastel-Kues
After the unsuccessful search for the Kaisergarten, we used the miles we had wasted on the trip to do a little sightseeing tour in Bernkastel, where we looked at the waterfall at the Tinkel Chapel, the old town and the Landshut castle ruins (pictures at the beginning).
