Mützenich, District of Monschau, Germany
Located at an elevation of 584 meters, Mützenich sits on the German-Belgian border within the High Fens natural region of North Rhine-Westphalia.
In 1783, peat workers discovered a Roman helmet and remnants of a log road near Mützenich, indicating the presence of an ancient settlement called Mutiniacum.
The Catholic church of St. Bartholomew, constructed in Gothic revival style in 1847, represents the religious heritage of Mützenich residents.
The district provides access to numerous outdoor activities with trails connecting to the High Fens, suitable for hiking, cycling, and cross-country skiing.
Following World War II, Mützenich became a center for coffee smuggling operations from Belgium into Germany, leading to investigations of over 100 residents.
