Nature house in Monschau

The original half-timbered house, completed in 1913, is located on the edge of the ancient town of Monschau in the middle of the German Eifel and was originally intended as a festival hall for the inhabitants of Monschau. It was later used as a gymnasium. After the Nature house had stood empty for about 10 years, the landlords converted the building, retaining old elements, into a Nature house. You enter the front building (with the bat chapel) via your own entrance, where you can take the stairs to the second floor. There is also a playroom for the children on the first floor. Via the stairs you come to the second floor with a large, open kitchen, which is of course equipped with all the necessary appliances to cook for a large group. On this floor there is also a lounge (30m2) with a sitting area, large screen TV and a special dining table for 20 people. There is a toilet in the stairwell. The private terrace is sheltered behind the building and is 60m2 in size with a view of the mountains in the background. The terrace is not used by others. There are box-spring beds in all bedrooms!
