Gefrierhaus Lüxem

The former home and birthplace of Karl Kappes, "Im Bungert" was converted into a freezing house in 1961 and is a stop on the historic village tour.

The central location in the old village center, directly on the Sterenbach, prompted the municipality to convert the house of the Kappes family, which was no longer habitable, into a freezing house for the Lüxem village population in 1961. After the conversion, the freezer house received 64 boxes of 254 liters and 79 boxes of 127 liters capacity. Today, hunters use the anteroom to cut up and pre-cool the hunted animals.
