Once the largest mining industrial site in the Altenkirchen district, today it is a space for art and culture. From there, the path leads to the Catholic Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross and then to the Marktsube. Here, Ferdinand Lassalle, one of the founders of today's SPD, stopped by in 1847 to represent Countess Sophie von Hatzfeldt in one of the most spectacular divorce cases of the 19th century.
The multi-generational park "Steinbuschanlage," named after the initiator of the "Volksbank Wissen," is a meeting place for young and old and a place of remembrance. The "Directors' Villas," the Germania Hotel, and the Gerichtsstraße are just a few of the stops on this entertaining tour.
We’ll see you in the "Kölsch-Ländchen"
Participation in all tours is at your own risk!
