Volcanoes in Germany? | Check it out with DW's Nicole Frölich in the Eifel Region!

Discover the Eifel Region with DW Travel guide Nicole Frölich! The low mountain range in western Germany extends through parts of the federal states of Rhineland-Palatinate and North-Rhine Westphalia. The region has a special geological feature: volcanic activity! Nicole travels through the Eifel National Park and explores the fascinating natural beauty of the region with its geysers, volcanic lakes and dense forests.
In the summer of 2021, nature showed its destructive side: the Eifel region was hit by serious floods; locals and the tourist industry are still picking up the pieces to this day.
The area is also home to a sinister place of remembrance: the former Nazi estate of Ordensburg Vogelsang, a training site for Nazi cadets during the Third Reich.Nicole’s trip to the Eifel took place in the fall of 2021. It begins in the picturesque medieval town of Monschau.

[@remkojerphanion4686]

Seeing this video makes me want to visit Monschau again! I have been there only once, and that was in 1976, so a return visit is due, don't you think? 😊

[@DWTravel]

Yes, it is - absolutely!

[@Crogatho]

The Laacher See volcano is actually far more active than you'd might think. There has been land uplift and earthquakes deep under the crust throughout the whole month of december, magma is quite definitely moving and the land uplift can be an indicator for the volcano preparing an eruption. Scientists believe it is still capable of erupting without warning, and an eruption of the Laacher See volcano would be catastrophic as it is listed as a super volcano.

[@DeadlinePhil]

To be honest as someone who lives relatively close to Maria laach I'm not as much concerned about the possibility of an eruption it's self but rather about the fact that apparently no one really knows what actually to do if it really happens

I've been to Monschau quite a few times and really like this place and the surrounding. Btw.: It's also famous for its mustard, which is still kind of hand made in a little "Senfmühle" (mustard mill) since 1882. Check it out the next time you go to Monschau ... :-)

[@DWTravel]

Great idea, Thanks!

[@JanahLife]
