Facts about Erkelenz
Erkelenz, a lively Rhineland city in North Rhine-Westphalia, is known for its historic old town, diverse cultural offerings, and proximity to the Garzweiler open-cast mine. The heart of town is the charming market square, the Old Town Hall, and the striking St. Lambertus parish church. Around the square, cozy cafĂ©s, restaurants, and boutiques invite lingering. Landmarks include the Erkelenz âcastleâ (a former town gate) used for cultural events, and the Old Town Hall as a popular venue. The city museum traces regional history, culture, and crafts. While nearby lignite mining has reshaped the landscape and prompted resettlements, Erkelenz offers abundant green space with cycling and hiking routes through the countryside. Annual highlightsâcity festival, Lambertus market, and Christmas marketâmake Erkelenz a vibrant regional hub.
