Vlatten, Administrative district in Heimbach, Germany
Vlatten is a district of Heimbach in North Rhine-Westphalia with residential streets, fields, and wooded hills. The village spreads across gentle terrain and is characterized by its church and scattered farmhouses.
Excavations show that Romans settled here before the village later became a royal court seat. In the medieval period, Emperor Louis the Pious visited this place and gave it greater standing.
Saint Dionysius Church has long shaped the village center, displaying building styles from different periods in its walls. Walking through the settlement, you notice how this church remains a focal point for local life.
The place is accessible via Bundesstraße 265 and offers walking paths to explore the village core. The best time to visit is during warmer months when the countryside is green and walking trails are pleasant to navigate.
The area was known for successful conservation work protecting little owls, the small owls native to the region. Young specimens were tracked and marked to follow their movement patterns and survival rates.
