Ruine Dreimühlen, Medieval castle ruins in Kalkeifel, Germany.

The stone remains of Haus Dreimühlen stand at 380 meters above sea level in the limestone region between Hohen Venn and Vulkaneifel.

The Lords of Dreimühlen first appeared in documents in 1218 when Oda von Drimollen was mentioned in connection with a donation to Niederehe Monastery.

The fortification represents medieval architectural methods of the Eifel region, with remaining walls constructed from local limestone materials.

Visitors can access the ruins without restriction throughout the year, as they are located within the protected natural area of Ahbachtal.

The castle changed ownership multiple times before being auctioned for demolition in 1807 after the Duchy of Arenberg transferred to French control.
