Start your walk on the parking bay in the given coordinates.

  1. Your first stop is Neutor at N 50° 35.051 E 7° 14.121 (WMT4W2). The Neutor is the only remaining town gate from the 15th century.
  2. Just walk on through Kölner Straße to take a look at a cheeky nose (WMT48Y) at N 50° 34.978 E 007° 14.205 and have fun!
  3. Go to the area around N 50° 34.952 E 007° 14.254 to see the old Rathaus (WMT4X9), the church and some other sights nearby.
  4. Walk around the church and find your way to Kirchgasse and take a look at the Pfarrhaus (WMTAXP) at N 50° 34.925 E 007° 14.285
  5. Turn your way to the north to Marktplatz and have a look at the nice buildings like Wohnhaus Marktplatz 4 (WMTAPJ) at N 50° 34.964 E 007° 14.326 and some other sights around.
  6. You really should have a look at Geheimes Erpeler Schlösschen (WMT4VV) at N 50° 34.987 E 007° 14.330. It´s not that far and you will learn about a local secret.
  7. Go back to Marktplatz, turn to the east to Bahnhofstraße and take a quick look at the big Wohnhaus Bahnhofstraße 4 (WMT4WH) at N 50° 34.933 E 007° 14.419,
