Kyllburg is a small town in the Eifel and state-approved climatic health resort.
background
In the past, Kyllburg was an extremely important tourist destination. In the 19th century, many people, especially from the Rhine and Ruhr, but also from the Netherlands, spent their holidays here; there were numerous special trains to Kyllburg. Tourism has come to an abrupt end here due to people's changed holiday ideas, but also due to demographic change. Strangers still come to Kyllburg, but not nearly as many as at the best of times, and the city is having a hard time coping with the change.
