Standort - Losheim am See, Germany - 'You Are Here' Maps on Waymarking.com

Next to the railroad museum, there is a bicycle route map at the bus stop on Bahnhofstraße.

"In a valley stretching from north-west to south-east on the southern edge of the Hochwald foothills on the federal road 268, surrounded by extensive deciduous and coniferous forests, lies the largest part of the village as the central supply point of the municipality of Losheim am See. Numerous finds indicate that the village of Losheim and its immediate surroundings were already settled in Celtic times. Secure traces of late Bronze Age settlement are the grave fields discovered in the "Großwald" and especially in the "Harscheid" district during recent excavations.
Stone tools excavated in 1923 even indicate a settlement in the Stone Age - even if possibly only temporary. From Roman times, in addition to grave fields with numerous remains of stone grave monuments, five settlement sites outside the local area have become known. The valuable finds are exhibited in the district home museum, in Merzig as well as in the regional museums in Saarbrücken and Trier. The central importance of Losheim has lasted through the Middle Ages until modern times."
