Juchen
This North Rhine-Westphalia municipality between Mönchengladbach and Grevenbroich is shaped by two contrasting features: the moated castle of Dyck, set within a park more than two centuries old, and the vast Garzweiler open-cast brown coal mine to the south, one of the largest surface mines in Europe. Two railway stations connect the town to the Mönchengladbach–Cologne line, making it a practical base for the wider region.
