Feel that breeze on top of the Lousberg? It's said that the devil himself once tried to trick a local farmer's wife here. He promised her gold in exchange for her soul.

Imagine people in the 19th century visiting just to take in the view. Behind you lies the Müschpark, a peaceful spot for a leisurely walk. Let the history and calm of this place inspire you.
