Gerolstein, Spa town in Vulkaneifel district, Germany.

Gerolstein extends across 64 square kilometers of volcanic terrain at an elevation of 358 meters in the Rhineland-Palatinate region.

The settlement received town privileges in 1336 and underwent substantial reconstruction after French forces destroyed large sections in the late 17th century.

The Juddekirchhof site contains foundations of two temples dedicated to Roman and Celtic deities, reflecting the mixed heritage of this region.

The municipality maintains several hiking paths through the volcanic landscape while offering mineral water springs accessible to visitors throughout the year.

Mineral water production began in 1724 with local spring water bottling, establishing the foundation for the current Gerolsteiner Brunnen enterprise.
