Castles and Abbeys have greatly influenced the landscape of the Eifel. The Eifel is one of the German regions with the most castles. The approximate number of 140 castles in the Eifel are a proof of this. In the Middle Ages, the country was divided into small areas. The rivalry between the noble families have strongly delayed the social development of the Eifel. Many of the Eifel Castles are now reduced to romantic ruins. Most were destroyed by the troops of Louis XIV during the wars of succession of Pfalz (1688 to 1693). Further destruction of castles, abbeys and ditches were inflicted by the troops of the French Revolution of 1794 - 1815, who occupied the Eifel during the time. As a result of the secular law of 1802, the property of monastery and noblemen repealed. Castles and locks were sold. It is due to state and private initiative that one will find beautifully restored castles and abbeys in the Eifel, a cultural monument for the history of the Eifel.
