Epen attractions

  • Sint Paulus Bekering, Wilhelminastraat 3. The village church is dedicated to St. Paulus and still in use. It was build in 1840-1841.
  • Timber framed houses. Timber framed houses that are typical for South Limburg, are especially common in Epen and the surrounding villages. You'll see them when you walk around. The Wilhelminastraat has several, some of them being national heritage sites.
  • Eper Molen (Wingbergermolen), Terpoorterweg 4. This watermill along the river Geul was build in 1844, but renovations in the 20th century changed the looks of it.
  • Volmolen, Plaatweg 1, Plaat. This 18th century watermill on a side stream of the Geul was originally build as a fulling mill. It is located in the hamlet of Plaat, near Epen. It was part of the then blooming cloth industry in Vaals. In the 1830's, after not being used for years, a German by the name of Johann Wilhelm Kannengiesser changed it into a wool spinning mill. After it was destroyed twice in fires, it was sold and changed into a grain mill. Following the Second World War, the mill became abandoned. In the 1970's, it was renovated and brought back into action as a grain mill, which it still is today.
