A visit is worthwhile even in "bad" weather, it is then somewhat mystical due to its location in the forest

Bronze sculptures of the “Schellenmann” and the “Fährmann” – form the center of the place. Schellenmann and Fährmann shaped village life until the early 1960s. The bell man was the village's means of communication; he announced the news throughout the town, including joys and sorrows, and made himself heard with his large village bell. The ferryman transported people and vehicles from the Reinig district across the Moselle to Igel with his ferries “Aachen” and “Pont”.

The Villa rustica is located in the market square area. It was probably built in the 2nd century AD and was destroyed during the wars of the migration, but there are still remains covered with earth. All that remains of the villa is the market fountain, designed as a modern work of art; it stands on the spot where archaeologists suspected the remains of the villa's manor house. The three striking stone columns of the fountain are modeled on the column arcades of the Roman villa.
