Guided Story

Imagine it's 1487. You can almost hear the clatter of hooves as Count Vincenz of Moers and his hunting party make their way past you. Look to your left, and you'll see the old walls of Werthschenhof, whispering tales of grand banquets and thrilling hunts. Behind you, just a bit north, the former Nühlenhof stands, a place where servants bustled to prepare the bakery for the next grand feast. To the west, the serene peace of the Rheinaue Friemersheim nature reserve beckons, a haven of tranquility even in those times. Take a moment to sense the blend of historical grandeur and the natural beauty that still converges here today.
