A short walk into the past
Limbourg (Lion’s Castle), now an ancient and picturesque town, once was the capital of the duchy Limburg. It is the cradle of the ancient family of that name from which sprang the Luxemburg family and several emperors of Germany. The core of the town is on top of a small mountain ridge, 75 m above the Vesdre-Valley, looking down upon Dolhain. The ramparts are still protecting the gothic church of St. George and the houses built with stones from the local quarry around a rectangular marketplace paved with stones polished by the near Vesdre. To find the best access you should follow the signs “Limbourg ville historique”. Park your car at N 50° 36,735’ E 005° 56,413’. Waypoint 1 Do you see the name plate of the local pub Au Cheval Gourmand? How many legs does this cheval (horse) have? The number of legs = a Waypoint 2: Go to N 50° 36,669’ E 005° 56,431’. When did Poswick receive the Chateau de la porte? At bc. AOUT defg Waypoint 3: Stand still at N 50° 36.(b+c)(g-d)(b)’ E 005° 56.(f)(c)(a)’. How many wooden window-shutters - to protect the bells – do you see? Number of shutters (at ONE side of the building!) = hj Waypoint 4: Sit down at N 50° 36.(e+d)(a)(d)’ E 005° 56.(b+h)(h)(e-b)’ and calculate the final cache. You will find it at the Cache point N 50° 36.(e-b)(h+c)(g+h)’ E 005° 56.(b+h)(f-a)(d+a)’. The cache is a small Tupperware box (12 x 12 x 4) – please don’t bring big trade items. After having found the cache please rehide it carefully – you are on a marked trail with many pedestrians. |

That is really a nice little town. Old houses, old bumpy streets of natural plaster; nearly a medieval atmosphere. Today a meeting of old racing and sportscars took place here. What a contrast! Thanks for this (event-)cache.

A beautiful little village which I surely would have never visited without geocaching. The tasks were easy to solve and the cache location so obvious that I found it without the hint immediately when I arrived at the cache.
