The monument route runs mainly on car-free paths, cycle paths along roads and partly on low-traffic side roads with predominantly flat gradients. The route leads past the two-part moated castle complex of Burg Engelsdorf to the Aldenhoven Mining Museum, where you can experience an important part of the indeland's history. A total of six exhibitions on various mining-related topics are presented on three levels covering around 700 square meters in a former monastery chapel. Another highlight on the monument route is the Deutschordenskommende Siersdorf, with its centerpiece, the brick manor house, a single-winged complex measuring over 1000 m2 with four square corner towers.
