Vogelsang is a real attraction located near Monschau. It is best known for the former Nazi training camp that was located there during World War II. After World War II, Vogelsang became a military base for the Belgian armed forces and remained in use until 2005. Then the complex was transferred to the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Since then, Vogelsang has been transformed into an educational and cultural center open to the public.
Today, visitors can explore Vogelsang and learn more about its history. It houses a museum that covers the rise and fall of the Nazi regime, as well as the Belgian occupation period. There are also exhibitions, tours and educational programs that inform visitors about the dark history of the site.
The scenery around Vogelsang is also breathtaking, as the complex is located in the middle of the beautiful Eifel National Park. It is surrounded by green forests and offers hiking and biking trails for visitors to enjoy.
