"Fachwerk" is so nice to see - Monschau

"Fachwerk" is so nice to see

"Fachwerk" that's what it is all about

Favorite thing: Almost all the houses in Monschau are made with "Fachwerk". This typical German buildingstyle is significant because of it's wooden supporting "balks" still visible after plastering the wall that is in between them. On top of that this environment has "lei"stone roofs and several sides of the buildings made of it as well. The total is amazing architecture, a joy for the eyes.

Overlooking the village after a short climb - Monschau

Overlooking the village after a short climb

Walkingtour through town and up ...

Favorite thing: Discovering Monschau can only be done by walking, walking and ... if you're up to it ... climbing a little. There are various overlookpoints around the town and at least one should be on your list. Focus for example on the ruine of the watchtower opposit the castle's mainhill. Here one only has to climb a little to have a great scenic view on Monschau.
