Hippelsteinchen - Gönnersdorf

Gönnersdorf

Geologically speaking, the "Hippelsteinchen" is a dolomite and mushroom rock. Several dolomite blocks are layerd on top of each other so that the rock formation resembles a mushroom, about 5 meters high and just as wide. It is possible that since ancient times the stone served as a border stone, probably even as a signpost and a plave of worship.

Burgruine - Glaadt

In the Middle Ages, Glaadt was even more important than Jünkerath, which at that time was only a hut settlement. For this reason, the counts of Blankenheim built a castle there in the 13th century, which was rebuilt into a magnificent hunting lodge at the beginning of the 17th century. However, a lightning strike in the 18th century caused it to burn to the ground.

Vulkan Goldberg

The quaternary volcano Goldberg, northeast of the municipality Ormont, is the northwesternmost foothill of the quaternary volcanic field in the Westeifel.The volcano is 649.1 meters above normal zero. The Goldberg was formed about 10 to 11,000 years ago in two eruptions. First, a large ash cone was formed. The second eruption phase began after a short time, which at first exploded the top of the old cinder cone with a strong explosion. Then again a cinder cone was built up on the leftovers and the activity ceased after a certain time.
