Start of the 280 km long "German Volcano Road", which leads to the 39 highlights in the world of the Eifel volcanoes. Hard to imagine what happened here almost 13,000 years ago. In the gently rolling landscape, the roof of a volcanic focus that had formed underground suddenly bursts open. A massive explosion shakes the area, caused by the underground contact of hot gases and groundwater. The volcano throws out huge amounts of ash and pumice.

The provost church of St. Servatius in Buchholz has been in existence for almost 900 years above Burgbrohl and Weiler.
