Treetop Walk Saarschleife is a 1,250-meter-long elevated wooden bridge that takes you through a forest path and leads to a lookout tower offering stunning views of the Saarschleife natural wonder. Opened to the public in July 2016, it provides a unique perspective of the Saarland landscape. The structure is well-maintained and wheelchair accessible, making it suitable for visitors of all ages. However, finding parking may be challenging on busy days.
Lovely place, 7000sq m of woods. The whole walk from parking to the tree top structure is flat- kids and old folks can easily walk. Walk up to top is also effortless.
Spectacular view from top. Windy but splendid view.
Must visit with family and kids.
Mahi R — Google review
Very busy but also the best spot to take your family and friends to see the ‘Saarschleife’.
It’s a fun walk with some puzzles and riddles along the way for kids.
The top can be crowded depending on the weather and time of day.
Can take a fair bit until it’s your turn to take the perfect photo ;)
You can also buy a season pass which will give you unlimited access for a whole year.
Lovely place with astonishing view, is very nice to see places in Germany countryside with infrastructure to receive tourist. The view is amazing and they even have an elevated walkway in the middle of the trees.
Very easy to access by train and bus.
Only issue was the price (12,5€), for a student it was so expensive and the student price was not appealing at all (11,5€), only 1€ discount.
Incredible experience for families accessible for wheelchairs and strollers. Interes hike with activities for children and educational facts. View on top from the tower is breathtaking. Totally worth its price. We paid 27 euros for a family ticket of two kids and two adults.
Cool place with interesting information. With kids makes a lot of sense to go because of the nature explanation. Without you can think about just going to the little free lookout below. View is nearly as good.
It's beautiful place, good for kids and families, good forsome kind of activity😍 like walk and otherthings, so so nice place especially the Saar Loop wow so beautiful 😍.
Very nice viewpoint to see the saar and Saarschleife
You can walk up and then also under towards the saar river
Banches are above with view points
You can also spot squirrels on the way!
Accessible for everyone even wheelchair and strollers!
A must when visiting Saarland!
For the price, this is an excellent attraction, as you can spend many hours walking around. The main attraction for us was definitely the tree top walk and the viewing platform. The walk across the boardwalk has several interactive points for children, although I didn't see any information written in English. It isn't too strenuous, and inclines are suitable if you have a pushchair or a mobility walker so everyone can enjoy this experience. As the name suggests, you're walking at tree top heights, therefore thise who have issues with height don't look down. What i would say is, if you're ok with looking straight across at a view (opposed to down), definitely do this, as the views are to behold. On a clear day, you can see for miles, over the woodlands and river Sarr. I would also encourage everyone to slowly walk the boardwalk before the viewing platform, as there are many birds flying around and with many bird feeding stations on the route you are sure to see some beautiful little birds. The 2 we saw a lot of were the Nuthatch & Crested Tit. If you want to spend the day, suggest taking a picnic.

Magnificent view, excellent place for nature lovers!
We visited few places like this in Europe. This one it wasn’t crowded. About 2 hours takes to visit all platforms. If you would like to eat just in front is really nice small hut/bar that you can buy great food. Deposit for glass €5 and make sure you have cash as they don’t accept card. About 15 minutes you have cash machine (ATM). Car park accept coins but easily you can download app and pay by phone (Apple Pay or credit card) doesn’t matter what language you are use or which country you come from. Really great place to visit and so beautiful views from the top. Separate you can pay extra for access to playground.
We visited this place last week and we really loved it.
It was first time we were visiting this place just by locating it on maps. The place was really nice.
There is a ticket to go to the tree top walk tower.
The view is mesmerising.
Must visit.
Overall experience in one word can be summarized as awesome.
There are different walking areas around here that you visit according to your choice of routes and distance. I really liked the idea of cardiac triangle walk.
We walked with kid and toddler (you can bring stroller. It's wheelchair friendly place).
Tip : if you decide to go for a walk (we took the 2km route) don't forget to visit ostrich enclosure. Apparently there are also eggs for sale.
The parking lot is wide but I find it somewhat overpriced. This place has a toilet facility that actually had toilet paper and soap but sanitation needs work.
Because of corona, play zone and observation tower are closed. Some food and drinks are available at the huts (obviously bit pricey) but there are lots of benches available for you to enjoy picnic.
Nice view! Wonderful place for bringing your kids. They will learn a lot about forest.
A very nice building in total harmony with the environment to which it serves as the entrance. Recommended to have a snack at the beginning or end of the tour of the park.
The view is amazing. For me, Autumn is the best season here, all the colors from the meadow are just awesome.

Scenic spot
Hiking area
Cloef is a stunning destination offering breathtaking panoramic views accessible via a treetop path. The observation platform provides an incredible vantage point, and visitors can enjoy concessions nearby. Families can explore the area with their pets and take advantage of the playground and wooden trail once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted. Clean restrooms and affordable parking make for a convenient visit, especially during less crowded times.
Beautiful place to explore with the entire family, including your dog, and when COVID19 restrictions are lifted, the playground and wooden trail look fun. Bathrooms are very clean, parking is 1.50 Euros for 2 hours. I went during the week, so the place was not crowded. Bring 5 cents, and 1 and 2 Euro coins if you like to collect the memorabilia coins. The machine is on the trail. Great place to visit!

The Cloef viewpoint in Mettlach, Saarland, Germany, is renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views of the Saarschleife, a dramatic bend in the Saar River. Visitors often describe the scenery as stunning and well worth the trip. The area is accessible via well-maintained trails, including the Cloef Pfad, which is popular among hikers and dog owners alike. The trail offers scenic walking paths and open spaces, making it an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts and their canine companions.
One of the highlights of the area is the Treetop Walk Saarschleife (Baumwipfelpfad), a wooden walkway that leads to a spiral observation tower. From the top, visitors are rewarded with expansive views of the surrounding landscape. While the experience is memorable, some guests have noted that the entrance fee of €12.50 might be considered steep for access to the viewpoint.
The Cloef-Atrium in Orscholz serves as a visitor center, providing information and amenities to enhance the experience. Although specific reviews are limited, the facility contributes to the overall appeal of the destination.
For those planning an extended stay, accommodations like Landhaus Cloef and Forsthaus an der Cloef offer comfortable lodging options nearby. These establishments provide convenient access to the natural attractions and are well-regarded by guests.
In summary, the Cloef viewpoint and its surrounding attractions offer a captivating experience for nature lovers and hikers. The combination of stunning vistas, accessible trails, and nearby amenities make it a worthwhile destination for visitors to the Saarland region.
Walk through a vast area of greenery filled with tall trees into an amazing view of water gap formed by Saar river. There are play areas for fun, games if you have got children with you. The tree top walk is magnificent if you love heights and adventures,but you have to pay for it.
One of the most exciting places.
Not only the view, but the path above the trees you must go to access the view deck is awesome.
Magnificent view, superb forest trails!
Beautiful place to make a hike. If you are into architectural buildings, or nature please have a visit. It is also wheelchair friendly. There is also a great option to have a lunch or drinks. Great location!
well worth the visit. stunning views. good little shop and cafe
Great place to spend a day with family, a lot to explore

Customers praise the outlet for its current items at discounted prices and excellent customer service, including post-purchase problem-solving. The shop's historical significance is also noted, as it supplied tiles for the Turkish Baths on the Titanic.

Nice shop. Took VAT form. Have bathrooms available. We registered for a 10% discount. Parking was close and not very expensive. People in the shop were helpful.

Great place for whatever you need for dining in style. And my dog friend enjoying the view from outside
Just wow. First, you can find current items at discounted prices. Second, their service is great, from advice given in store to problem solving after the purchase. We bought a set without checking it and it turned out to be incomplete when we unpacked it at home. They sent us the replacement by post so we didn't have to make an extra trip. We greatly appreciate being treated this way by a business.
Loved the shop. I even bought something. The crockery is absolutely gorgeous, even for my taste. Lots of bargains to be had at the moments. This was our first time there today. Might go back tomorrow, as they are open tomorrow.
Good selection and we'll laid out. Good customer service and they wrapped the dishes for transport like they were their own!
Well, the shop inside is very nice and has very good variety. All thr staff us very nice, but probably until you buy the product. I have bought the set last weekend. All the dishes on exposition were very good quality, so we decided to by all set. Sales woman broat us all the dishes in closed boxes....one day after I opened and saw product with other quality than I saw in the shop. Yes, it's discoun, but what I saw nobody would buy at even 50% discount. I contacted shop immediately, so was arranged the shipment , but now the want my original invoice. Sorry, we exchange 5 emails and if I send it I have no confirmation about payment. I want my money back or I go to police to declare that from my point of view you are trying to cheat your customer.
If you need original invoice you write in 1 email as a requirement. You mentioned this only after I have sent you all the dishes. I hope your bosses will read this fee6and contact me to solve the problem.
Wide selection at outlet prices, many pieces have extra discounts. Selection ranges from essentials to higher end pieces, seasonal decorations. Registering via touch screen in the shop gives additional discount.
I read somewhere that the tiles in he Turkish Baths on the Titanic are still standing, even after 100 years of being under water. Guess who made those tiles? StarLine shipping company was a customer of Villeroy and Boch of Metlach in Saarland and all of their ships used tiles from this company. They were of course expensive, but incredibly good quality.

Roman Villa Borg is a reconstructed archaeological park that offers a fascinating glimpse into various aspects of Roman rural life. Situated about 20 minutes' drive from the Old Abbey, it stands as the only one of its kind in Europe. The well-maintained site features a villa, gatehouse, bath, gardens, and an archaeological museum. Visitors can also enjoy a tavern serving 'Roman' beer and generous portions of delicious food.
Lovely place to visit, out in the countryside, not far, about 30 minutes away from the Luxembourg border.
Roman Borg is a reconstructed Roman villa that is well-kept and gives its visitors a clear picture of life as it was then, a living museum.
The 'tavern' is an actual eatery, and after a tiring tour of the exhibits and buildings, a neal there will be a lovely end to round up the tour.
Tony T — Google review
This reconstructed Roman Villa sits on top of the remains of existing Villa from the 2nd - 3rd Century. There are some artifacts on display, but the Villa is more about the experience. The best time to visit would be when they have a reenactment activity.
There is a movie explaining the site, but unfortunately, it is only in German with no subtitles in French, Dutch, or English despite the close proximity to Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
Many of the displays have multilingual information. There is even a QR code, but even having T-Mobile Germany, I had no WiFi reception. The site is located in a pretty remote area.
There is a café with attentive servers and a selection of Roman themed meals and drinks.
So cool! Great reconstruction of a real Roman fort. Current archeological dig site. Has a really cool Roman festival with gladiator fights and traditional tradesmen the first weekend of August.
Very interesting archeological site! It's worth a visit. But please add information in English too though because everything was in German. The QR codes for translation didn't work because our wifi signal was too weak
A piece of history very well rebuild. You can imagine vividly how the Romans lived in those days. Worth a visit. You can also have something to eat and drink in the taverne.
Absolutely loved it, such a charming place and so secluded with lots of things to see.
The food was amazing, very generous portions. Lovely girl that was our waitress was so helpful even though we didn't speak German so much.
Will definitely visit again.
A wonderful space that offers a slice of Roman life. Eating and drinking, museum, exhibitions, entertainment etc.. all very well thought out.
It was a fun rebuild of a villa the first one I have been to. They have a good tavern and some of the original walls as well.

During warmer months, guests can enjoy the lovely patio. The picturesque setting by the forest and water feature provides an idyllic backdrop for a casual dining experience. Visitors have praised the friendly waiting staff and delicious food, with some mentioning that it exceeded their expectations for a tourist site eatery.
Hot chocolate was delicious. Nachos were huge and tasty. One portion was enough for my husband and myself. Wait staff were friendly and if we didn’t understand in German they repeated in English. The price of the food was good value for money.

Great food and good service. There are lots of places inside and out on the terrace. Nothing to complain about.
It’s crazy in every restaurant I go to, I always have a hair surprise I have had enough, chefs and waiters should wear hair nets?
I was sick in the parking because of this thank you guys I paid 52€ for that 👍
Food is almost excelent, not good service and slow. Anyway taste this food if you visit park.
Great restaurant to relax in after you’ve explored Saarschleife. Picturesque setting by the forest set by a water feature. Waiting staff were friendly and the food was hearty and good. The beer was tasty as well. Would recommend if you’re looking for a casual dining experience set in idyllic surroundings.
Excellent terrace with superb Flammkuchen!! We really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and surroundings.
Good food, didn't really like the service. It was slightly on the rude end and that ruined the atmosphere too. However, our own waitress was polite.
I wouldn't expect to have such a good meal at a restaurant located in a turistic site, they probed me wrong. The service was great and the food fantastic with reasonable prices.

Very basic, difficult parking, change rules as they please: close restaurant, no personal check-in
Disliked · Booked an hotel with restaurant, after al lot of research. What we got: an email that there was no check in and we must pick up our key in a box. If we wanted that kind of service, we would have booked an Airbnb. After trying to make a reservation for the restaurant, they told us the restaurant would be closed, because of a holiday earlier that week? They did not inform us about the closing of the restaurant prior and the restaurant was one of the main reasons we booked the hotel, because we knew we would arrive after a long day of driving and hiking. When we arrived, it turned out there was paid parking around the hotel, they did not inform us about that eather. Took an hour of driving through te village and calling the owner of the hotel to find a parking spot. Very disappointing stay. Room is also very basic for 135 Euro a night. No fridge, no coffee or tea, no airconditioning. Very noisy, we woke up really early because of a truck in front of the hotel.
Room OK and clean. Good mattress and bed. Very helpful and friendly staff. Breakfast excellent. Restaurant, very good German food and excellent service. They also have a good selection of Italian food and pizza. Outlet stores next door.
Very quaint and old fashioned, but in nice way. Beds comfortable and good breakfast spread, buffet style, with plenty choice and all fresh. Good value for money. Also, close for porcelain shopping at Villeroy and Boch which is experience by itself. Love staying in Mettlach as is perfect quiet little town in river Saar
Good service brought water for our stuffed animal whose name is Alpha and identifies as genderfluid
Would recommend
Nice hotel and rooms were appropriate for the price. The staff were friendly although the breakfast left a bit to be desired.
Smallest room I've ever had in Germany. Hotel provided a fan because the room was so airless.
Polite staff, very clean, the food was a bit disappointing.

Absolutely fantastic!
(Translated by Google) It was new to me that a chef would greet guests so unfriendly.
The service was okay, but nothing more. The only thing that really brought customer service to the table was the chef, who not only served the food but even asked the table how it tasted. I feel sorry for him about the review. The food is delicious, but unfortunately, nothing more. A real shame!

Dass ein Chef den Gast so unfreundlich empfängt war für mich neu.
Bedienung ok, aber nicht mehr. Die Kundennähe bringt einzig der Koch, welcher nicht nur das Essen serviert hat, sondern sich sogar am Tisch erkundigt wies geschmeckt hat. Für ihn tut mir die Rezension leid. Das Essen ist lecker, mehr aber leider nicht. Sehr schade!

Wolf Park Werner Freund is a research center and park featuring landscaped enclosures that house wolf species from around the world. Visitors can enjoy a free tour on the first Sunday of the month, although it's conducted in German. During the tour, guests are treated to insightful information about wolves and get to witness interactions with these majestic creatures, including feeding sessions. The park offers separate areas for seven wolf groups, making it easier for families to observe these wild animals and learn about their habits and lives.
Really lovely wildlife park with amazing wolves. This place is great to walk round and learn about the wolves without feeling like you’re in a zoo or that the animals are mistreated. It’s completely free but i would leave a small donation as it’s truly a great place.
Lucas C — Google review
It's preset small but free to enter. The caregivers care a lot about the wolves and they have a lot of space. The surrounding forest has some beautiful hiking trails.
The experience was a bit disappointing; only a small portion of the park was opened. The whole tour took 20 mins.
We got to see some wolves though. I can't be mad about that.
Must visit. And it's free. But check their website first before visiting.
Great selection of Wolves to see. We saw the Lithuanian Wolves and the Polar Wolves. They were absolutely beautiful. The grounds are stunning Forrest. Ferns, trees, moss, mushrooms, slugs, it was just beautiful. The lady running the park for the day was very nice and kind. The park is free but I encourage you to donate. It’s worth it! We spent a good hour to hour and a half walking around and observing the wolves. Take the trip
We got to see almost all of the wolves that lived there, except for the black ones. We were so lucky to hear an orchestra of the wolves howling from one end of the park to the other. Even more impressed when Tatjana came to feed them a small deer. Truly impressed!
We visited on a weekend in April. Allow about 1-2 hours to have a good walk around. Signs are in German, French, and English.
I cannot believe that this place was free!
It was a first Sunday of the month, so we came for the free tour. We knew that tour will be only in German, and this was a 1st time I regretted to not knowing German. Frau Tatiana had a 30 min cool info about wolves at the first point and then another 15 min at every other stop. She interacted with wolves and fed them chicken. It was amazing to see how friendly wolves are in here. Really lovely experience, even we had pouring rain on us all this time.
At the end don't forget to stop by the souvenir store where you can buy cup, magnets, key chain, shirts or hoodie, calendar or book with a photos of local wolves.
Truly magic experience seeing wolves. Thank you Frau Tatiana.
The wolves barked. (Not at us)
The wolves jumped. (Not at us)
The wolves ate. (Not us)
Very safe, very cute, very fun. Would recommend. Don't forget to donate (the box is at the entrance)

My husband and I love this place. We enjoy the peace and tranquility that the wellness area offers and spend most of our time in the outdoor pool, basking in the sun and just letting the day come to a close. The evening is also nice with the various colored lights, which add a special atmosphere and warmth. This wellness area is not recommended for children or teenagers that want to be loud and rambunctious!
Amazing time we spend there ...very family friendly price is ok food ok the pools they are very very ok...I will come back definitely
As many people say. A bit on the pricey side. There were alot of people there as we arrived late morning, after about an hour it got less busy. The kids loved it though, so it was worth it.
Everything there has been made to make you feel at ease and peaceful. I used to come here as a child, came back about a week ago and nothing has changed. Probably my favorite swimming pool so far
Very cozy and family friendly place. Bathing area I nice, good sun exposure. Shower areas are extremely nice and constantly being cleaned.
Great place to Relax in the Thermalwelt.
Nothing wrong with chilling and having a Pint.
Very nice indoor pool and wellness ! Top for children of any age ! Friendly staff

Freibad Mettlach

(319)
Outdoor swimming pool
Freibad Mettlach is a spacious and well-equipped swimming pool with plenty of amenities. It offers ample space for visitors to relax, with large grassy areas, shaded tables, and benches for picnics. The facilities include changing rooms, showers, a ice cream parlor, and a small snack bar. There are three pools catering to different age groups and preferences: one for toddlers, another with a slide, and a third featuring diving boards.
A lovely small town summer swimming pools complex. The only minus is just a short pool (25 m) for swimmers. The rest is wonderful: water not too warm, the pools in stainless steel, green grass, lots of shade, wonderful location, great buffets and e very interesting main building that speaks architectural history of the region. Eco-friendly, as they apparently warm up their water with a solar system.

the water slide was super fun, the jump platforms as well.
My favorite pool in the area! Brilliant for kids.
Most relaxing and enjoyable!

(Translated by Google) Great outdoor pool, there are 3 pools, maybe 4. We went there 4 times and each time there was room on the grass for everyone. Snack bar, slide, diving board, it's worth the drive, the prices are affordable. And everything is very clean 👍

With an impressive selection of house-brewed beers alongside regional specialties and international dishes, this microbrewery is a haven for food lovers. Whether you're craving succulent steaks, fresh fish, or hearty comfort food, there's something to satisfy every palate.
Perfect food (its a lot of food for the good price!) and service. Loved the vibe!
Fleur W — Google review
A simple yet great place to enjoy time. The outside looks slightly industrial and needs some painting. However after entering we realised that it's a big place with actual beer brewing units which makes it nicer. The attendant was incredibly friendly and helpful and been so through out the afternoon. The beers we had was suggested by the attendant and we loved them. The starter and main courses were really good. Overall a fantastic experience. I will definitely go back when it's slightly warmer to sit outside in the beergarten. Eat and drink here if you are in the region.
We visited on the evening of 6th January, so it wasn't very busy, although there were enough people for a bit of atmosphere. The dark beer was good, my wife had a light beer which was pretty standard. I chose the ribs, and she had Jägerschnitzel. The ribs were dry on the outside, and reasonably tasty, although not the best I've had. The Jägerschnitzel was OK. All in all, not top quality food but perfectly adequate and in line with the price.
Staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Merzig whilst visiting Villeroy & Boch Mettlach we had an amazing night here. I recommend the rump steak or the schnitzel for meat lovers, or the veggie burger if meat is not your thing. Everything was well cooked and extremely tasty.
Spacious restaurant and micro brewery. Good choice of tasty food and local beers. Quite close to motorway. Good for lunch stop. Might be overcrowded in popular times.
To have that kind of great food - ribs, with the tasty home groomed beer. The meet was exzellenten. The brewery equipped indoor or nice outside beer garden by the lake.
Good food and great beer brewed on site.
No place for tourists. Rude crew. Food was ok if you can accept being treated like a stupid person that are not welcome

Restaurant Callari

Italian restaurant
Nestled in the charming town of Merzig, Restaurant Callari is a culinary gem that showcases an impressive array of Italian, European, and Mediterranean dishes. This delightful eatery caters to all palates with its offerings ranging from classic pizzas and delectable pasta to fresh salads and healthy vegetarian options. The inviting atmosphere makes it the perfect spot for enjoying a diverse selection of Mediterranean cuisine. Guests rave about their experiences at Callari, particularly highlighting the exceptional surprise menu paired with thoughtfully selected wines that elevate each course.
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, it took me too long to visit this culinary highlight in Merzig for the first time. It was also because it is not always so easy to get a table at short notice. So we had to wait a bit, but we were more than rewarded. Great service and great quality at Menu surprise, which I can only recommend to everyone. The selection of open wines is small but fine, and there is a wide repertoire of bottles to choose from. The menu was very tasty, varied and well composed. Above all, I have to emphasize that there was enough time to enjoy. In contrast to some other restaurants that literally "sluice" you through, here I once again had the feeling that I was a guest and that I was getting a good time for my money. Especially since the price is almost a bargain in relation to the quality.
The only point of criticism: Although it's nice to sit outside on the Seffersbach, the pedestrian and bicycle traffic that unfortunately passes through the outside area can be quite annoying for calmer souls. There are also apartments above the restaurant, so that something comes down when watering flowers. But I don't blame the restaurant for this, as nothing can be changed about the apartments or the route. Of course, everyone can decide for themselves whether they want to sit outside.
Conclusion: A visit is definitely worth it, it's better to reserve in advance.
(Original)
Leider habe ich zu lange gebraucht bis ich dieses kulinarische Highlight in Merzig erstmals besuchte. Es lag auch daran, dass es nicht immer so einfach ist kurzfristig einen Tisch zu bekommen. So mussten wir etwas warten, wurden aber dafür mehr als belohnt. Großartiger Service und tolle Qualität beim Menu surprise, das ich jedem nur empfehlen kann. Die Auswahl an offenen Weinen ist klein, aber fein, an Flaschen steht ein breites Repertoire zur Auswahl. Das Menü war sehr lecker, abwechslungsreich und gut komponiert. Vor allem muss ich hervorheben, dass man ausreichend Zeit zum Genießen hatte. Im Gegensatz zu manch anderen Restaurants, die einen regelrecht "durchschleusen" hatte ich hier mal wieder das Gefühl, zu Gast zu sein und eine schöne Zeit für mein Geld zu bekommen. Zumal der Preis im Verhältnis zur Qualität fast schon ein Schnäppchen ist.
Einziger Kritikpunkt: Zwar sitzt man draußen sehr schön am Seffersbach, doch der Fußgänger- und Fahradverkehr, der leider durch den Außenbereich hindurchführt, kann ruhigere Gemüter durchaus nerven. Auch befinden sich über dem Restaurant Wohnungen, sodass beim Blumengießen schon mal was runter kommt. Dem Restaurant mache ich dafür aber keinen Vorwurf, da sich weder an den Wohnungen, noch am Weg etwas ändern lässt. Auch kann natürlich jeder selbst entscheiden, ob er draußen sitzen möchte.
Fazit: Ein Besuch lohnt sich definitiv, besser im Vorfeld reservieren.

I am shocked this place is so highly rated. The portions are way too small for what the quality is. Tasteless dull food. We waited 30min for the cold starters, 1h for the pasta and the place was half empty. Happy to pay more for good quality but this was far from average!
(Translated by Google) First-class Italian restaurant with an outdoor terrace on the Seffersbach. Great daily specials and a great wine selection. Both Italian and local Upper Moselle winemakers, or from Bernkastel-Wehlen. Gladly again at any time!

Wonderful place to stay. The owners are very friendly and the rooms are quite nice.
It wasn't so good
(Translated by Google) The food was truly delicious – compliments to the kitchen! 👨🍳 Unfortunately, the impression was completely ruined by the host. Our group slightly rearranged tables – as a result, we were publicly and inappropriately reprimanded.
❌ No conversation, no tone of politeness – absolutely unprofessional.
🕙 Although service continued until 10 p.m., we were subsequently accused of staying outside "too late." This seemed arbitrary and very unfriendly. 😠
🚫 Hygiene & Safety:
🧼 No soap dispenser in the restroom and no light
🚨 No smoke detectors in the rooms
🚪 Escape routes barely marked
Conclusion: Good food alone isn't enough. Hospitality? None. 👎
(Original)
Das Essen war wirklich lecker – Kompliment an die Küche! 👨🍳 Leider wurde der Eindruck durch den Gastgeber komplett ruiniert. Unsere Gruppe stellte Tische leicht um – daraufhin wurden wir öffentlich und unangemessen zurechtgewiesen.
❌ Kein Gespräch, kein Ton der Höflichkeit – absolut unprofessionell.
🕙 Obwohl Service bis 22 Uhr lief, wurde uns danach vorgeworfen, im Außenbereich „zu lange“ zu bleiben. Das wirkte willkürlich und sehr unfreundlich. 😠
🚫 Hygiene & Sicherheit:
🧼 Kein Seifenspender auf dem WC und kein Licht
🚨 Keine Rauchmelder in den Zimmern
🚪 Fluchtwege kaum gekennzeichnet
Fazit: Gutes Essen allein reicht nicht. Gastfreundschaft? Fehlanzeige. 👎

Paul N — Google review
There are too many wonderful things to say about Athen Grill. My boyfriend and I ate there last night for dinner and I mean it when I say it was the best meal, of any cuisine, either of us had ever eaten! We had the warm dolmades as a starter, which were as good as my family's recipe, if not better (but don't tell my grandmother!) For entrees I had the grilled calamari and my boyfriend had the stuffed lamb steak, and both were INCREDIBLE.
However, even better than the food was the service. My boyfriend and I are English speakers, but we were welcomed in with smiles, gestures, and the little German we could understand. Our waitess, Toula, (apologies if I'm spelling it wrong) was so sweet. She spoke English and helped us translate the menu. We also had a wonderful conversation and left feeling as if we had made a new friend.
Everyone should eat here if they have a chance- the food and the people who lovingly prepare and serve it are amazing! My sincerest thanks to the wonderful family who owns and operates this incredible restaurant! I'm counting the minutes until I can eat your delicious food again!!
Supergood. Home bread is top. Big portions. We come back
I went there today for the first time and I must say I wasn’t disappointed.
Thanks to the server, she was patient and helpful.
Would visit again.
Really nice food! The waiter are very friendly.

For day 3, we bundled attractions like Burg Montclair and Saarschleife and other places within a close range, so that the time it takes to travel between all of them is less than one hour. Combined with the average time people spend there, your day should take about 7 hours.

Burg Montclair is a medieval castle located near Mettlach, perched on a high mountain ridge overlooking the Saar Loop. Accessible after an 8-minute drive and a 45-minute walk from the Montclair car park, it offers visitors a pleasant hike through the woods. The castle ruins can be explored for a small fee, providing stunning views of the surrounding area.
We crossed the Saar on the small ferry from near Driesbach (need to check when it's running) then walked up the hill to the castle which takes about 45 minutes. Great views, a cafe - though quite a solitary spot ....
Chris C — Google review
Great location. Small but coisy castle, or what is left from him. Note that you will have to walk to it for quite a while. It took us almost an hour, so if you have a possibility, take a bike with you. In the castle there is a Cafe, with simple but good food. Good choice for weekend trip.
Nice place to visit if you're up for a hike. The castle is about 4.5 km from the closest parking lot. It's not a tough or difficult hike but it is a long one. There's no public restrooms along the way and when I was there the castle was closed till July 29 (2019). There's apparently a restaurant there and you can pay to enter the castle when it's open to the public. Highly recommend if you're in the are and have time for a decent hike.
Park your car next to the river and then take the ferry and have a short and pleasant hike here. Bring cash you can have a drink and a snack at the restaurant and enter this castle.
Creditcards are sadly still not accepted here.
We had a super sunny day out... it is a gentle uphill walk but also nice downhill going back, the entrance fee to the castle ruins is only 2€ and you get to see a lot, after we were done viewing we had a great meal with generous portions of freshly prepared salad and I had meatloaf ....Grrreat! Well worth the visit and you'll be surprised to find it's not full of tourists or school trippers who don't want to walk the 7 km round trip. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Had fun taking the little ferry over the river to hike up to the castle. Nice castle ruins.
Very nice place with a small museum and a bistro. The bistro was good, the museum was kind of weird - old stuff and replicas mixed together without notice, all pieces were simply spelled out without much explanation. I also missed an overview of the history of the place itself. Nice target for a hike!
Ideal for a walk, with a restaurant located inside the castle. The castle is about 3.5 kbs from the parking so one hour each way walking at a good pace.

Saarschleife, located in the charming town of Mettlach at the border of France and Luxembourg, is a breathtaking sharp curve of the Saar River. This idyllic natural reserve attracts tourists and locals alike with its stunning landscape. The trek to this popular sightseeing destination may be challenging, but the magnificent view makes it all worthwhile. In addition to its natural beauty, Mettlach offers historical sites and is a shopper's paradise with an outlet center for luxury tableware.
We had a great day at the Saarschleife. Easy to park the car. Nice walks. The views are lovely and there is a great adventure playground on the way to the Saarschleife viewpoint.

A great place to spend time in nature. Ideal for families with children, with a large playground (extra fee) and a vast area for walking. Beautiful view of the Moselle River - it amazes us every time we’re there.
Stunning view, especially at night!
After enjoying the breathtaking scenery at the Cloef viewpoint during the day, we returned at night — and it was even more impressive. The view over the Saar river and the surrounding landscape was absolutely magical in the dark. A must-visit for nature lovers!
Good place to trek and see some good view. One of the best places to trek in Saarland. The view of the horse shoe from the top is amazing. Also I think the whole region is a good point for a small picnic. I visited this place is summer and I heard it is the right season to view the place.
Beautiful place with a nice horse shoe shaped river flow. A gift of nature to witness.
Lovely scenic boardwalk through the forest. You’re rewarded with a fabulous view at the end.
You can also have the view free from down below.
It’s okay for €11
The “Grand Canyon” must see place to visit. €13 for seniors for the tree top walk finishing with the viewing platform over the river valley far below.

Although the views are nice the price is pretty steep at 12,50 per person. Also the signage was not so clear as we initially thought this was the entrance for the playground, but that is actually a separate entrance at the end of the treetop walk
(Translated by Google) 12.50 euros too expensive. Nice path to the actual tower with playful information boards, in three languages. Unfortunately, I soiled my hands and pants with resin while watching two squirrels on the parapet. Danger! The ticket office closes 1 hour before the end (!), so unfortunately we had to come twice and therefore missed the sunset on Thursday. Unfortunately, the feeding crib at the exit was already closed on Friday! No well-coordinated opening times, especially since the advertising board at the entrance attracts people without specifying the opening times. Binoculars at the top didn't work despite being thrown in (1eur). Nice view and exciting experience, but still too expensive. Then enjoy the view of the Cloef, 42m lower.
(Original)
12,50eur zu teuer. Schöner Weg zum eigentlichen Turm mit spielerischen Infotafeln, dreisprachig. Hände und Hose hab ich mir beim Beobachten 2er Eichhörnchen leider an der Brüstung mit Harz versaut. Achtung! 1h vor Schluß ist Kassenschluss (!), daher mussten wir leider 2x kommen und verpassten somit den Sonnenuntergang am Donnerstag. Die Futterkrippe am Ausgang war dann leider am Freitag auch schon geschlossen! Keine gut abgestimmten Öffnungszeiten, zumal die Werbetafel hierfür ohne Angabe der Öffnungszeiten am Eingang lockt. Fernglas oben funktionierte trotz Einwurf (1eur)nicht. Aussicht schön und spannendes Erlebnis, dennoch, zu teuer. Dann lieber den Blick an der Cloef, 42m tiefer genießen.
(Translated by Google) A very special perspective. Treetop path is highly recommended. Great view from the tower.
(Original)
Eine ganz besondere Perspektive. Baumwipfelpfad absolut zu empfehlen. Top Aussicht vom Turm.
(Translated by Google) Way too expensive in my opinion. I think €12.50 per adult is too expensive, especially since the “attractions/stations” up to the observation tower are more for children. So if you go there as a family there's a lot of money going on. Too bad. !
(Original)
Viel zu teuer meiner Meinung nach. 12,50€ pro Erwachsenen finde ich zu teuer, zumal die ,,Attraktionen/Stationen‘‘ bis zum Aussichtsturm eher was für Kinder ist. Wenn man also als Familie hingeht ist mal ziemlich viel Geld los. Schade. !

(Translated by Google) Entrance fee with child, 2 adults and grandma is expensive. Beautifully built, but of course the best thing is the view.
They are also available for free downstairs.
The absolute height of the rip-off is the fact that the exit leads directly to the entrance to the playground, where you can pay another 30 euros for a child to have fun.
There we are, walking on the summit path and sitting in the playground at over 70 euros.

Playground
Abenteuerwald Saarschleife is a family-friendly park situated at the end of the treetop path Saarschleife. While some find the entrance fee a bit pricey, others opt for an annual family pass for unlimited visits. The park features diverse and well-maintained play equipment including zip lines, slides, climbing structures, and more. However, navigating with a stroller can be challenging due to stone paths.
Top experience for very reasonable price!
The only drawback are paths made out of stones which is very difficult to go with a stroller.
As of pricing, we buy every year the family pass for the whole season for 49 EUR and you can come as much as you want, which makes the entrance fee very reasonable.
Stanislav R — Google review
This park is at located at the end of the treetop path Saarschleife. In my opinion it is a bit on the pricey side. I believe we paid 20 euros for the family ticket (2 adults and 3 children). Children over the age of 3 were required to purchase a ticket to enter.
The play equipment is varied and well maintained. There are zip lines, slides, climbing structures, an in-ground bounce thing (I am not really sure how to describe it but the kids were jumping on it like a trampoline), etc. I didn't take very many pictures because I was too busy chasing after the littles, but there are a lot of things for the kids to do.
The bathrooms are right at the entrance. There is also vending machine there stocked with various teas and lemonades. No food that I could see.The exit is at the second level. You can also receive a stamp at the second level to exit the park and go to the free section.
The free playground has two really large metal slides, a seesaw, a swing, and a play structure. If you don't feel like paying you can definitely still have fun in that area.
Despite the price I think this would be a great place to take the kids, especially if you pack your lunches; you can have a picnic.
Disappointing and expensive.
The slide that our son of 4 saw from the treetop walkway was not even part of the playground. It was part of a cafe nextdoor. We paid 22 euros and when we walked towards the slide he liked we realized we were trapped behind the fence of the playground.
Nice place for kids to play. No drinking water fountain or cafe or other place to get some drink or food. Kids enjoyd it even if bit too crowdy.
BUT to pay for ALL adults 8Eur!! Not appropriste at all! We payed for the grandma 8Eur and she did not use anything there, same for us, the parents!. Shame!
It’s more or less a basic playground. You pay the same amount for adult and children, but there is nothing for adults, no food no drinks. At least there is reception, 2 bar 5G.
Beautyfull huge child playground in the forest ! All new installation, with learning stations ! 20€ for family entrance (4 peoples) No Restaurant or Bistro here !!! Bring your Pick-Nik with you !
Really nice play area with long slides for kids, parents can enjoy a drink and a snack at the top of the slide.
I rode the slides. It was fun.

Castle
Burg Saarstein is a beautifully modernized castle that showcases stunning architectural updates while retaining its historical charm. However, it's important to note that this impressive structure is privately owned and not accessible to the public. While you may admire it from afar, exploring its interior remains off-limits for visitors.
(Translated by Google) Very nicely modernized...
However, private property and NOT open to the public...

There was never, and remains nothing of a building. The place had been used as a grill area for years, illegally. And all that remains are smashed beer bottles, and 3 moss-covered benches. Please don't waste your time hoping to see something.
(Translated by Google) The journey is not worth it. In the middle of the forest there are a few old wooden planks used as stairs, but they are rotten and covered. But never from castle times either. When you walk up the stairs you can't see anything. A fire pit made by young people, nothing else. No remains of walls, not even shapes that suggest a castle or building. You can't navigate here with Maps either!
(Original)
Der Weg lohnt sich nicht. Mitten im Wald sind ein paar alte Holzbohlen als Treppe angelegt, allerdings verottet und verdeckt. Aber auch niemals aus Burgzeiten. Wenn man dann die Treppen hochläuft sieht man nichts. Eine Feuerstelle von Jugendlichen, sonst nichts. Keine Mauerreste, noch nicht einmal Formen die auf eine Burg oder ein Gebäude schließen lassen. Mit Maps lässt sich auch nicht hierher navigieren!
(Translated by Google) Saarstein Castle is a derelict hilltop castle on a mountain tongue above the Wellesbach Gorge. The castle was built in 1351 by Bishop Baldwin of Trier, probably in connection with the siege of Montclair Castle opposite. However, it is still standing, halfway, while Saarstein has practically completely disappeared. That probably says a lot about the siege.
The castle was last mentioned in 1439 when it was owned by Arnold von Sierck; today only small remains of the wall and countless stones can be seen.
(Original)
Die Burg Saarstein ist eine abgegangene Höhenburg auf einer Bergzunge oberhalb der Wellesbachschlucht. Die Burg wurde 1351 von Bischof Balduin von Trier erbaut, vermutlich im Zusammenhang mit der Belagerung der gegenüberliegenden Burg Montclair. Die steht allerdings noch, halbwegs, während Saarstein praktisch völlig verschwunden ist. Das sagt vermutlich einiges über die Belagerung aus.
Die Burg wurde letztmals 1439 im Besitz des Arnold von Sierck genannt, heute sind nur noch geringe Mauerreste und zahllose Steine zu sehen.
(Translated by Google) The remains of the castle were not seen at all, but there are remains of a wooden staircase.

Nestled in the charming spa town of Orscholz, just a stone's throw from Mettlach, Buchnas Landhotel Saarschleife is a delightful retreat that combines modern comfort with natural beauty. This long-established country hotel offers stylish accommodations and an array of amenities designed for relaxation. Guests can indulge in rejuvenating treatments at the full-service spa or take a dip in the indoor pool after exploring nearby attractions like Saar-Hunsrueck Nature Park and Aussichtspunkt Cloef.
Thank you so much for an AMAZING weekend! It was such a full and perfect minibreak, even if it is only an hour from Luxembourg. The spa area is beautiful and the breakfast were 7 stars worth, with absolutely everything imaginable on offer.
So much to do in the surrounding area: The Saarschleife, great bike paths, watersports on the river apple picking in Merzig :) I will be back with my family for sure.

Brilliant place. Very clean, comfortable and relaxing. Morning spa at 7 am was absolute bliss and I could just relax well.
The breakfast was one of the best I have had. Nothing too fancy but just so much good quality selection and amazing service.
There is also a great sightseeing place nearby. Warmly recommend that as well.
Loved the place and hope to return in the future❤️
Very wonderful experience here. Lovely hotel with very attentive staff. Location is great, Wellness was a nice bonus, and room and food were also top. Thank you for a great stay!
Great location and very, very friendly staff. Good restaurant in the hotel.
Restaurant : Price/quality ratio for the food is very (very) low. Poor choice for wines. Plate of cheese is good but miserable quantity : 4 tiny (minuscule) pieces of cheese. The other fruit desert was of sub-par (refrigerated) quality. Service is slow and complacent. It seems they don't care at all, well now we don't either. Not coming back.
Good gastronomical dishes. Quantity quality and price are wonderful. The atmosphere is calm, they is candle light on each table the evening. Personnel is nice. Moreover they have a delicious coffee 🤤
Excellent place to be. Beautiful environment for hiking in the woods and along the river Saar. Lovely spa with swimming pool and sauna, and chairs to spend long hours reading a book. Best breakfast buffet you can find. Good diners. Friendly staff. We keep coming back.
Nice and clean hotel with an indoor pool. The hotel has a bit old german style. And they have very friendly staff. The place is in a walking distance from Saarschleife ceolf so you may stay there and enjoy sunrise from the nice view of the Saar reiver. The main bad thing that they do not have any air conditioning or fans. So in summer it is extremely hot. Even in the conference room. The restaurant is expensive and the food is well looking but not exceptional just fine. Small portions and they asked if we need more. However desert was amazing. I was on cpany trip but if I would alone I would not find it a value for money.

The spacious terrace offers stunning river views and a delightful variety of refreshments. The staff is friendly and the menu boasts delicious options including a great steak.

I liked the atmosphere of the location and the waiters were friendly as well. Nevertheless, the main reason to visit a restaurant is the delight enjoying a tasty meal. Unfortunately, this experience was dreadful. Really bad quality food, overpriced and, for God's sake, small portions. Folks, if this establishment is meant to survive: better quickly improve in your main assets or the course of this "Fährhaus" will run aground within eyeshot.
Went here in July and had a really good time. Our waiter Yazan was amazing, really attentive and knowledgeable, such a star! Will definitely come back here when I`m around this area next. Highly recommended.
The good - seated quickly, friendly Kellnerin, food came out quickly, onion soup was tasty.
The bad - different menu in person than on the website, gravy for roast beef was mostly likely from a packet/can, roast beef was not the cut of meat one expects with roast beef, potatoes fried in too much oil, and rigatoni tasted as if it was cooked hours prior and left to warm. Both entrees were well over-priced for what we actually got.
A sensation of decadence, particularly about the cuisine. For the first time in years got served really quick. Friendly but maybe inexperienced staff. A great potential, given the unique location, but unfortunatelly unexpressed.
Friendly staff, average food, very very slow service. People wait almost two hours for main dishes
Great food, viable vegetarian options and the sword fish is really good.
Really nice staff

For day 4, these 6 places should be enough to fill your day with something exciting to do in Mettlach. Start the day with Experience center of Villeroy & Boch and make your way through the city to get to St. Gangolf. This should take about 7 hours of your day.

Specialty Museums
The Experience Center of Villeroy & Boch is a small but charming museum located in an ancient abbey. It offers a fantastic environment to learn about the history of porcelain and admire beautiful decorations. Visitors can explore the brand's historical review, including a video presentation in English, and witness how ceramic products are made. The center provides an excellent opportunity to immerse oneself in ceramic heaven, where history, form, and function converge in a ceramic format.
If you are a fan of this brand or someone who is interested in the history of a porcelain Factory, then this is the place for you. Absolutely Exquisite and delightful tour through the history of the company. Outside of the museum are wonderful restaurants and an outlet so you can buy their were lovely product. Very traditional brand of Germany and Luxembourg. Don't miss it

Nice museum, also each ticket is a 3 eur voucher for purchase in their outlet.
Fantastic experience!
I visited twice, and it was the perfect adventure for any Villeroy & Boch fan. I do wish there was a book about the brand's history or some kind of merchandise available.
By the way, your ticket gets you a discount at the outlet, and you can even use your membership points as payment—even if you're registered outside of Germany.
Guess how many gorgeous items I'm bringing home with me!? 😄
It is like a huge advertisement for the brand not a real museum. You can find little information about technology and knowledge. Btw outlet is good for shopping
A wonderful museum in a stunning location. You truly immerse yourself in the atmosphere and history of Villeroy & Boch. There’s so much fascinating information about the process of making tableware and sinks, along with many historically important exhibits for the brand. Overall, the museum is filled with beauty and aesthetic charm. Plus, there is a huge outlet store right by the museum where you can buy tableware at prices lower than in regular retail shops.
Ceramic heaven! History, form and function all come together in a ceramic format.
The previous exhibition was more interesting for me but the new one is okay too. Have fun, folks!
Unfortunately, we did not visited the Experience Centre. Only the shop. There was also too much to see.

(Translated by Google) Very clear information center for the Villeroy & Bich company with a large campus and a detailed museum where you can find out everything about the family and company history. Of course, the information here and there suffers a little from the impression that everything is intended to encourage you to sell.

Schloss Ziegelberg is a picturesque venue that offers stunning views and excellent food and wine. The staff is friendly and accommodating, making it an ideal location for celebrations at a fair price. The park in front of the castle is perfect for events like Christmas markets and concerts. While the castle itself is no longer open to the public, its decline is unfortunate as it provides a wonderful view of Mettlach.

Kirche St. Lutwinus
4.7
(59)
Catholic church
Kirche St. Lutwinus is a beautiful and inviting church with many intricate details to discover upon closer inspection. It serves as the parish church of von Boch, featuring porcelain Stations of the Cross and a stunning mosaic-adorned choir canopy. Visitors can also experience impressive Easter masses with Latin readings and exquisite choral singing. The church's historical significance adds to its appeal, offering a serene atmosphere for prayer and reflection, especially during festive services such as Christmas midnight mass.
(Translated by Google) I find this church particularly interesting. From the outside it is very attractively designed and looks typically like a German church. But its special charm lies hidden inside. To me the church looks very Mediterranean. The absolute highlight for me is the ceiling design in the choir room of the church. The design with Venetian gold and glass mosaic reminds me of many old Roman church buildings. But the entire interior with the extraordinary floor covering with Mettlach tiles and mosaics made from Mettlach clay stick material is also unique. The entire interior design clearly shows the influence of the town's largest company, Villeroy & Boch. I think without the company's generous support at the time, Mettlach would certainly not have received such a wonderful sacred building. Original quote from a church guide "The construction work was in the hands of the Villeroy & Boch stoneware factory".
Other features of the church that are worth seeing for me include the altars, the pulpit, the stained glass windows and especially an extraordinary terracotta Stations of the Cross. The wall mosaics on the two side altars are also remarkable. In addition to the many mosaics, the many colorful pictures (I don't know if they are frescoes) depicting the life of the church's patron, above the arches of the central nave, give the church a special charm.
In my opinion, the entire decoration of the apse, the vaults and side walls of the choir with many special (Venetian) materials gives the church its extraordinary character.
The church windows are also exceptional. After the supposedly particularly colorful and original church windows were destroyed during the war, they had to be completely replaced after the war. This resulted in the unique choir windows and the large portal rosette with alabaster panes from Volterra. According to church leaders, these are completely unique north of the Alps. I didn't particularly notice these windows inside the church; it was only when I looked from the outside that I noticed their special feature.
(Original)
Ich finde diese Kirche besonders interessant. Von außen ist sie sehr ansprechend gestaltet und wirkt typisch wie ein deutsches Gotteshaus. Ihr besonderer Reiz liegt aber im Inneren verborgen. Für mich wirkt die Kirche sehr mediterran. Das absolute Highlight ist für mich die Deckengestaltung im Chorraum der Kirche. Die Gestaltung mit venezianischem Gold- und Glasmosaik erinnert mich an viele alte römische Kirchenbauwerke. Aber auch der gesamte Innenraum mit dem außergewöhnlichen Bodenbelag mit Mettlacher Platten und Mosaiken aus Mettlacher Tonstiftmaterial ist einzigartig. Bei der gesamten Innenausstattung merkt man eindeutig den Einfluss des größten Unternehmens des Ortes, Villeroy & Boch. Ich denke ohne die damals großzügige Unterstützung des Unternehmens, hätte Mettlach sicher nicht solch einen wunderbaren Sakralbau erhalten. Originalzitat aus einem Kirchenführer "Die Bauausführung lag in Händen der Steingutfabrik von Villeroy & Boch".
Zur weiteren sehenswerten Ausstattung der Kirche zählen für mich besonders die Altäre, die Kanzel, die Glasfenster und ganz besonders ein außergewöhnlicher Terracotta-Kreuzweg. Auch die Wandmosaiken an den beiden Seitenaltären sind bemerkenswert. Neben den vielen Mosaiken verleihen die vielen bunten Bilder (ich weiß nicht ob es Fresken sind) mit Darstellungen vom Leben des Kirchenpatrons, oberhalb der Bögen des Mittelschiffes, der Kirche einen besonderen Charme.
Die gesamte Ausschmückung der Apsis, der Gewölbe und Seitenwände des Chores mit vielen besonderen (venezianischen) Materialien verleihen der Kirche meines Erachtens ihren außergewöhnlichen Charakter.
Außergewöhnlich sind auch die Kirchenfenster. Nachdem im Krieg die angeblich besonders farbenfreudige und originelle Kirchenfenster zerstört wurden, mussten diese nach dem Krieg komplett erneuert werden. Dabei entstanden die einzigartigen Chorfenster und die große Portal-Rosette mit Alabasterscheiben aus Volterra. Laut Kirchenführer sind diese nördlich der Alpen völlig einzigartig. Im Inneren der Kirche sind mir diese Fenster gar nicht so besonders aufgefallen, erst beim Betrachten von Außen fiel mir die Besonderheit auf.

You can tell that this is the von Bochs' house church: the Way of the Cross in the church is made of porcelain, the choir canopy is decorated with a wonderful mosaic. Very presentable! The highlight was an impressive Easter mass, which was partly read in Latin and accompanied by wonderful choral singing.

Very nice church, we drove up to it but it was closed that day
(Translated by Google) The old Besseringer parish church, now located in the Mettlach municipality, is certainly worth a visit. Especially because of its romantic location. As part of a hike to Montclair Castle, it is worth taking the route through the small village. Unfortunately, the church has been mostly closed lately. From time to time there are still church services on Sundays. Then it is open. The building is a baroque hall building from 1775. Previous buildings had probably existed since the 10th/11th. Century. Documented since 1230.

Die alte Besseringer Pfarrkirche, heute auf dem Gebiet der Gemeinde Mettlach liegend, ist sicher einen Besuch wert. Vor allem wegen ihrer romantischen Lage. Im Rahmen einer Wanderung zur Burg Montclair lohnt der Weg durch das kleine Dorf. Leider ist die Kirche in letzter Zeit meist verschlossen. Ab und an gibt es aber Sonntags noch Gottesdienste. Dann ist sie geöffnet. Beim Bau handelt es sich um einen barocken Saalbau von 1775. Vorgängerbauten gab es wohl seit dem 10./11. Jahrhundert. Urkundlich belegt seit 1230.

Excellent salad and a very kind and always smiling waitress who speaks at least three languages (German, French, English). Fast service, cold beer, delicious food. Well done!

Restaurant staff was totally unfriendly yesterday. They experienced issues with the credit card reader, and instead of apologies, they verbally attacked me stating the the issue comes from my card. Never ever again. So sorry because the food wasn't as bad as the staff's behavior.
Nice restaurant we discovered during a family trip. Friendly and caring staff serving good local dishes. The prices could be lower but I was satisfied. Thank you!
We didn't stay there, so I can' comment on the rooms.
The dishes were excellent, service too, and the beergarden in Mettlach's pedestrian zone was nice and quiet.
Quite recommendable.
The waiters didn't bother to come over and serve us. Although they were free. After 10 minutes of waiting, we went to the another restaurant.
We stayed one night here and had dinner. The room was very clean, big & very comfortable. The dinner was enjoyable and the breakfast is included and very rich.
Nice place, good wine, very friendly waitress. Prices decent. I can recommend this restaurant.
Great selection of game and really well cooked food.
Friendly staff and interesting menu.

I recently visited this small, charming spot that's perfect for summer. I’m not typically a beef fan, but their smash burger is one of the juiciest and most flavorful burgers I’ve ever tasted. The prices are friendly, making it an excellent value for the quality. The fries are cooked to perfection, crispy and delicious. It’s a delightful place that has won me over with its amazing burgers and great atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Very delicious handmade burger, all the ingredients are fresh and of good quality.
A small suggestion is to add an option for whole grain burger buns (handmade 😉)
My wife and I were visiting Saarburg for the weekend, and after a long day of sightseeing, we were craving a good burger. We decided to try Burgerbar, though honestly we were a bit skeptical – being from the US and having had some disappointing burger experiences elsewhere in Germany.
I’m not exaggerating when I say this is the best burgers I’ve ever had. These burgers easily beat anything back home in America. My wife ordered the sweet potato fries and I went with the onion rings, both were absolutely perfect alongside our burgers.
We enjoyed it so much that we will now make the hour drive from our place whenever we’re in the mood for a really great burger. Highly recommend!
Food was delicious, service was quick and friendly. Besides the burger the mango ice tea was also great.
Parking is right underneath, you reach the restaurant by little staircase.
This restaurant was a suprise for us and when we are back in Germany sometime we will definitely visit again.
Very delicious food and great atmosphere! The staff were super attentive and helpful all times. The cost-benefit is very good! For sure, I’d recommend and I’ll be back!
I'm not a typical burger fan but the Burger Bar was recommend by a local so I decided to check it out.
Boy, was I in for a wonderful surprise. I got the spicey Speedy Gonzales burger and it was good! The meat was top, the sauce, the presentation. Simply delicious. Burger Bar takes burgers to a whole new level.
But it doesn't stop there.
The nice and spacious terrace is also a big plus but what really sets this place apart the owner's attention to the well being of his clients. Aided by his young and friendly staff he's actively out there to make sure everybody is getting top-notch service. A friendly chat with his patrons or bringing out food and drinks himself, he leaves nothing to chance.
5 stars are really not enough to rate a surprisingly wonderful experience. Check out the Burger Bar yourself, you won't be disappointed.
Amazing food. You can really taste that the Burger's are made from scratch and with love, as are the fries. Been there with my family twice and everyone loved it
It wouldn’t be exaggeration if I say it was one of the best burger I ever have been tried
Personal or super friendly and caring
And then food has been prepared by professionals delicate and balance
It was a awesome experience
If you come across to this city give it a try and thank me later 🍻🍻

Hotel
Nestled in the enchanting landscape of Mettlach, Gästehaus Schloss Saareck is a charming guesthouse that exudes historical elegance. Housed within a stunning castle built in 1903, it features delightful antique furnishings and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding park. Just a short stroll from the Villeroy & Boch Discovery Centre, this fairy tale-like retreat sits across the Saar River from the former Benedictine abbey.
A very lovely hotel. Tasteful decor, very elegant breakfast porcelains.
It's a historic building, so the floor in the hallway might be a little squeaky but cannot hear from inside the room. Restroom in the hotel room is clean and modern. They provide good quality toiletries.
It's hard to reserve a room here. I checked multiple times started couple months before my trip, then finally found a room available on the night before departure.
Friendly staff. I definitely recommend.
Honest R — Google review
Stunning location, astonishing building and friendly staff - brilliant place to stay. Peaceful and comfortable, Christian and Zora made us feel especially welcome and at ease. They both spoke excellent English and created a happy relaxed atmosphere.
Breakfast was excellent and set evening meal was great. What’s more, it’s dog-friendly and our spaniel loved the location, the extensive grounds and the chance for a dip in the river.
The history of this building and evidence of the Boch family, it technical skill and manufacturing is apparent throughout but in an understated way.
They cater for weddings and large groups so it can be busy during the day but quiet in the evening. As a result there is no restaurant during the day and there is no evening menu choice.
This is a big old castle, its very pretty, but we didnt have such a great time there.
Some of the staff should simply not work in the hospitality industry. To say that the staff were not kid friendly would be an understatement. Do not bring children here.
Location/building is great but staff can vary between very friendly/helpful & quite rude. The room we had was of a good size, quiet with a very comfortable bed but no facilities included (tea/coffee/biscuits/air-con/welcome info/fridge/safe).
Is the best experience ever. We book a room for our wedding and I fell in love. Since that time we come over very often. I've been a lot where in the world, but this is my favorite place! Service, atmosphere and the quality of food and overnight is gorgeous.
We booked a suite here for couple of nights in Falls. The Castle itself is really beautiful from inside out. The breakfast was stunning, as well as quality of the hotel restaurant in general as we also had diner in hotel. Service was good, but should be more friendly.
Been there on a wedding, truly amazing setting. Food and drinks were very good, staff is polite and welcoming.
It’s the perfect place to get married.
Unfortunately the really beautiful rooms are surprisingly noisy. You literally here every door opening and closing. Normally we sleep like stones, but it was really really loud. Not everything authentic is good I guess… so 2 stars less.
Breakfast was great again, nothing to complain, everything high quality.
An old and impressive castle which was built in 1902-1903 by the Boch family (Villeroy & Boch) and has a rich history. The castle is the official Villeroy & Boch guest house since 1954.
The rooms are spacious and clean; though they like amenities such as a coffee machine or even a kettle.
The staff are very gracious and professional!
The castle is impressive from the inside and outside!
Breakfast is very good!
This is definitely a place to come back to!

I go here very often, traditional saarländisch food, and great beer.A lot of seasonal beers are brewed here and also a lot of parties are held Good location for events or parties.
The food was amazing. Freshly cooked and served hot. Have to say the beer was very nice. Would definitely call again if I’m in the area.
Great beer and the best chicken wings in the area! They have a beer dispenser 😂 so cool 😎
Very good food. Decent prices. You must try the "Lyonner mit pommes
We had the dibblelabbes and a season special, pork medallions with mushrooms. The dibblelabbes were pretty good though far from the best I've had in Saarland. The pork was very tough though and the mushrooms were underseasoned. The service was also on the slow side, but that is understandable as there are a lot of tables.
Beer was good and that's about it...
Service was incredibly slow and unresponsive. Even after asking for condiments three times, I had to get them myself from the kitchen.
We asked beforehand, weather we could pay by card, which they affirmed. In the end the device was out of service, so we couldn't pay by card. The staff seemed very unapologetic about the situation.
Food was a mixed-bag. Meat-salad with fries was mediocre to bad, the filled "Klöße" were quite good.
beer was good but the food was awful :-(

The Höckerlinienweg is a captivating trail that offers visitors a unique glimpse into history while surrounded by stunning natural beauty. As you stroll along this historic path, you'll encounter the impressive Dragon's Teeth, which extend further than many expect. This area not only invites reflection on wartime events but also features a serene pond teeming with wild clams—an unexpected find in Germany! The trail is peaceful and perfect for thoughtful walks, making it an ideal spot for families to explore together.
“Dragon’s teeth” Highly recommend this historic hike. It takes you back into war-time history while simultaneously immersing you in A beautiful landscape.
Laura — Google review
Nice place to visit; the dragon's teeth extend much further than i had anticipated. There's a small pond near the site that has wild clams, something I didn't know existed in Germany.
This is a neat little trail area. That is nice and quiet to walk-through really makes you think about history and what our forefathers had to go through.
Atypical place, worth the short walk.
Tip: don't go after rain if no boots, it's doable but be prepared :D Still fun, even with kids.
You can enter any time. No cyclists allowed. It was very interesting and well signposted
An amazing part of history that is well preserved! It's a nice, easy walk through the Dragon's Teeth, where you can reflect on those terrible times.
Great!
Very imposing historical site. If you're in the area I would recommend you visit it.

Castle
Montclair Castle, completed in 1439, offers a historical journey and features a museum. The route from the car park to the castle takes about 45 minutes, with a tour costing 2 euros per person. It's a small castle with a museum, and the walk from the parking lot is approximately 3.2 kilometers. Visitors can expect a hike of about 45 to 60 minutes from the parking lot to reach this beautiful historical site.

(Translated by Google) It's a shame these castle ruins used to be a really nice place to go for a walk. Now the glass front and gates adorn the castle. As I said, the hike there was done in just under 40 minutes one way... Unfortunately, you ended up standing in front of the locked gates Otherwise the castle isn't really inviting either. Dagstuhl Castle or the Devil's Castle have more charm... And above all cheaper... Because original and free ;) the only thing that was annoying in my opinion was the 2 hour walk to avoid otherwise I would have done much better I would have been able to invest if there had been a sign with opening times. I saved 2 families from the children's gossip and said that the castle was closed. It used to be much more pleasant for a family outing. Unfortunately today it's just a disappointment :(

Schade diese burgruine war früher echt mal ne schöne location zum spazieren gehen.. Jetzt zieren glasfront und Tore die Burg.. Wie gesagt die Wanderung dort hi war in knapp 40 Minuten one way geschafft... Leider stand man hier dann vor verschlossenen Toren und auch sonst ist die Burg nicht wirklich einladend.. Da hat die Burg dagstuhl oder die teufelsburg mehr Charme... Und vor allem günstiger... Weil original und kostenlos ;) ärgerlich war in meinen Augen nur die 2 Stunden spazieren gehen um sonst die ich wesentlich besser hätte investieren können wenn da denn mal ein schild mit Öffnungszeiten gestanden hätte.. Habe 2 Familien dann die knatscherei der Kinder erspart und gesagt das die Burg geschlossen ist.. Früher war es doch wesentlich angenehmer für einen familienausflug.. Heute leider nur eine Enttäuschung :(

The bridge was renovated for more than 400,000 euros. That's what happens when incompetent people decide on the construction of such buildings.

I have ZERO understanding because the bridge was also paid for with my money, twice. Thanks for nothing.

Nice breakfast they have a buffet or you can order anything, it’s delicious but it’s only one person working or so it seems and it takes time to get your food on the table, despite that, everything was good!
Located right in the city centre, you can't really miss it. The menu items seem a bit overpriced, but there is a very nice feeling inside and the cakes taste great :). For those who need it, free WiFi is there and the connection speed is excellent.

Had a wonderful experience here, even if we were a bit on the clock. They do have an English menu for you and they are incredibly warm and welcoming. Boy oh boy is the food tasty. I've probably had one of the best pork fillets in the world here, but the Weiner snitzels and the turkey steak were fantastic as well. Everything down to the salad even were fabulous and perfectly cooked, yet tender and juicy. And I'd say the prices were more than great for the quality of the food and the atmosphere. Absolutely loved this place
Best place in town, very friendly service!!
Great steak and red wine was superb, love the surroundings. The staff was great.
Excellent experience! The meat quality and taste, incl. the preparation and the wood grill aroma, were OUTSTANDING! Defiantly one of the best steaks I have EVER had.
The chef and the maître d’hôtel, who are also owners of the place, are extremely passionate about what and how they do. We've felt very warmly welcomed.
All in all, Kaminklause is a MUST!
Epic steak at a decent price. Beware the sides are large, we struggled to get through the 3 pictured. It’s interesting how the cook the steak too.
Amazing food and really cozy atmosphere. Loved it! The steaks were simply great!
Always perfect service and food is amazing 👏
After a short looking on the net for a "different" restaurant in our area to celebrate our 22 anniversary, I found the Kaminklause, and directly I said this the one! With my wife and our daughter we got the feeling that we're in a family visit . A place where you can find smiles, delicious food and drinks, warm atmosphere, and a parking place for your car ... so honestly what we want more? Certainly we'll return back more and more.
We recommend this restaurant!

We had luck to get a table without calling in first. (You definitely should though). The pizza was amazing. The dough was perfect and there were a ton of toppings on the pizza. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant had a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Overall it was amazing and we will definitely go there again.

Great Pizzeria
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately disappointing – not recommended
We visited the Bistro Alte Schule in Wehingen on recommendation, but were disappointed. The food was very bland and unconvincing – we had expected much more, especially for an Italian restaurant.
The value for money was also not right: The dishes were simply not worth the price.
We also noticed that Italian guests were given preferential treatment – they were served more quickly and received their food much earlier than others.
The dining room is small and poorly ventilated. It was very stuffy, which made the stay even more unpleasant.
Overall, unfortunately, it was not a coherent experience. Due to the disappointing quality, the uneven treatment, and the unpleasant atmosphere, we cannot recommend the restaurant.

Leider enttäuschend – keine Empfehlung
Wir haben das Bistro Alte Schule in Wehingen auf Empfehlung besucht, wurden aber enttäuscht. Die Speisen waren geschmacklich sehr fade und wenig überzeugend – besonders für ein italienisches Restaurant hatten wir deutlich mehr erwartet.
Auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt nicht: Die Gerichte waren ihren Preis schlichtweg nicht wert.
Zudem ist uns aufgefallen, dass italienische Gäste bevorzugt behandelt wurden – sie wurden schneller bedient und erhielten ihr Essen deutlich eher als andere.
Der Gastraum ist klein und schlecht belüftet. Es war sehr stickig, was den Aufenthalt zusätzlich unangenehm machte.
Insgesamt leider kein stimmiges Gesamterlebnis. Aufgrund der enttäuschenden Qualität, der ungleichen Behandlung und der unangenehmen Atmosphäre können wir das Restaurant nicht weiterempfehlen.
(Translated by Google) We stopped here spontaneously at the end of our hike (Wehinger Viezpfad) and were given a lovely spot on the terrace.
We were very pleasantly surprised. The appetizer salad was exceptionally good, and we also really enjoyed the pizza.
The seating is beautiful, and the service was attentive and friendly. It had a touch of vacation for us.

Wir sind spontan am Ende unserer Wanderung (Wehinger Viezpfad) hier eingekehrt und hatten einen schönen Platz auf der Terrasse bekommen.
Wir waren sehr positiv überrascht. Der Vorspeisen Salat war außergewöhnlich gut und auch die Pizza hat uns wirklich super geschmeckt.
Man sitzt wunderschön dort und der Service war aufmerksam und freundlich. Hatte für uns einen Hauch von Urlaub.
(Translated by Google) The Bistro Alte Schule is worth a visit! There's a small parking lot right in front of the bistro, and the terrace is shaded by two large parasols. Two more tables are located downstairs, and the trickling of a fountain creates a holiday atmosphere. As for the food...the salad dressing is homemade, everything is delicious, and the espresso is served in a preheated cup, just as it should be. The staff and the owner are great. The bistro is also located in the Schlemmerblock (snack bar), and card payments are also accepted. We'll be back!

Das Bistro Alte Schule, ist eine Reise wert! Ein kleiner Parkplatz befindet sich direkt vor dem Bistro, die Terrasse wird von zwei großen Sonnenschirmen beschattet. Im unteren Bereich befinden sich noch zwei Tische, das plätschern eines Brunnens lässt Urlaubsstimmung aufkommen. Zum Essen...das Salatdressing ist selbst hergestellt, alles ist sehr lecker, der Espresso wird in einer vorgeheizten Tasse serviert, so wie es sein soll. Das Personal und die Chefin sind toll. Auch im
Schlemmerblock ist das Bistro zu finden, auch Kartenzahlung ist möglich. Wir kommen wieder!

Best kebap I have tried so far with relatively good meat, which is rare to find in kebaps. Staff is also very friendly and prices on everything are very good.

Hygienic and delicious, and the prices are quite budget-friendly. On our next vacation, this will be our only destination.
The kebap is delicious, the shop owner is very helpful!
