The historic old town of Zons is always worth a detour. Particularly beautiful are the well-preserved town wall, the old towers, and the narrow streets. Zons can be wonderfully integrated into a bike tour along the Rhine or through the surrounding fields. Perfect for a short break, a stroll through the old town, or an ice cream in between. 🚴♂️🏰

The former electoral-Cologne customs fortress of Zons, founded in the 14th century by Archbishop Friedrich III. von Saarwerden, is considered a unique example of a fortified medieval town in the Rhineland due to its excellent state of preservation. Particularly worth seeing is the mighty Rhine Tower from the year 1388. But the Juddeturm with its baroque dome and the windmill with its still original wooden grinding mechanism from the 17th century are also popular photo opportunities, alongside the Rhine landing stage and the city walls.
