It forms the highest point of the Eschweiler Ridge and lies in the North Eifel Nature Park. Geologically the region is part of the Limestone Eifel, the Herkelstein itself - like the rock formations of the Kakus Caves - is made of Devonian Limestone. It lies between the villages of Weiler am Berge and Holzheim (Mechernich). From the top there is a good long-distance view over the Cologne Bay. The vegetation on the Herkelstein comprises coniferous and mixed forest, pastures and arable fields.

Arloff Castle (German: Burg Arloff) is on the river Erft in the village of Arloff, part of the borough of Bad Münstereifel in the county of Euskirchen, in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The buildings of the former water castle of Arloff, which today look somewhat ordinary by the River Erft, belong to the typologically important castles of the Rhineland, because such a well preserved example of a purpose-built fortification from the Early Gothic period is rare. It was originally surrounded by moats which were fed by the Erft. In the Middle Ages it was of strategic importance due to its location, because it was situated on the border between the Electorate of Cologne and the County of Jülich.

The Alte Burg (also Alte Burg im Quecken or Alte Burg "am Quecken") in Bad Münstereifel, Germany, is a circular rampart that is the remains of a fortification from the Carolingian period. The refuge castle acted as a place of retreat for the local population and as protection for the daughter monastery of Prüm Abbey. The defences dating to the 9th century have been designated as a protected monument. The castle site lies within the county of Euskirchen in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The spur castle site lies northeast of the town centre on a hill spur, the second Quecken, above the Erft valley east of the B 51 federal highway at a height of 315 to 363 metres (1,033 to 1,191 ft). It is 300 metres (980 ft) long and 80 metres (260 ft) wide, excluding the outworks. There were at least two periods of construction. In the northeast is a motte. In the highest section of the site, the rubble stone foundation of a round tower has survived. In the 19th century a silver coin bearing the image of Louis the Pious is supposed to have been found here; it has not survived. In 1972 parts of the site were archaeologically investigated. During the excavations shards of pottery from the 9th century with decorations (Rollrädchenverzierung) were discovered.
