Adenau, Historic town in High Eifel, Germany.

The municipality of Adenau extends across hills and valleys at 309 meters elevation, featuring traditional German architecture and modern urban developments.

First documented in 992 as Adenova, the town received significant influence from the Order of Saint John in 1162 through a donation from Count Ulrich.

The municipality maintains active cultural exchanges with partner cities in France, Malta, and Italy through regular events and community gatherings.

Local establishments provide accommodations and dining options near the Nürburgring racing circuit, which brings regular visitors throughout the racing season.

The Kaiser-Wilhelm Tower stands at Hohe Acht, the highest point in the Eifel region at 747 meters, offering views across the surrounding landscape.
