The former Cistercian monastery of St. Thomas on the Kyll in St. Thomas, a community in the Eifelkreis Bitburg-Prüm in Rhineland-Palatinate, was founded in the late 12th century in honor of Thomas Becket. The place and monastery bear the name of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Chancellor under King Henry II of England, who after his assassination in 1170 in the Cathedral of Canterbury by Pope Alexander III. was canonized. The church was built towards the end of the 12th and the beginning of the 13th century with elements of late Romanesque and early Gothic style.

Kyll Cycle Path along the railway line near the Weiherwiese St. Thomas

Highlight • Cycleway

The Kylltal Cycle Path (also called the Kyll Cycle Path)[2] is a 120 km long cycle path that largely runs parallel to the Kyll. It connects the source of the Kyll near Losheimergraben on the German-Belgian border with the confluence with the Moselle near Trier-Ehrang and the Roman city of Trier just a few kilometers away.

Messingrohrwerk Albert Industrial Monument

Highlight • Monument

Located directly on the Kyll:
The factory building from 1903 onwards now forms the northern part of the complex.
Two two-storey brick shells of different widths flank a central, flat-roofed hall with a gabled façade, the façade of which is clad in sandstone; the central axis is marked by a flat pediment.
There are large segment arch windows with original iron struts on all components.
Inside the middle hall, the equipment for pulling the pipes from the early days has been preserved and is still in use today.
A large warehouse was built south of the factory in the 1930s, the exterior of which matches the middle part of the old factory building.
The facility also includes a round brick factory chimney, the hydroelectric power plant with a generator to drive the transmissions and a two-arched stone bridge that leads over the mill race to the former mill.
The building and the factory chimney are industrial monuments.
Epoch: Historicism / Art Nouveau
