In the Footsteps of Old Meiderich
Since 2023, the Meiderich Citizens' Association founded in 1905 has been offering neighborhood historical hikes led by neighborhood historian Dieter Lesemann. The tours are between 4 and 8 kilometers long, last approximately 2 to 3 hours including information stops, and occur regularly on Saturdays from March to October. This combination of movement, storytelling, and local knowledge makes the hike a discovery experience for everyone who wants to understand Meiderich beyond the major traffic routes.

History Unfolding Along the Way
The focus is not only on the path but also on the narrated history of the neighborhood. According to its own charter, the Meiderich Citizens' Association sees itself as a guardian of the sense of home, a voice for the preservation of traditions, and an association for deepening local history. Since 2017, it has operated its own office with an archive at Haferacker 19, which is open to those interested. Thus, the hike becomes a cultural enrichment related to the association's history, urban development, and the evolved self-understanding of Meiderich.
