Description
EN
Two brooks meander and converge in the tranquil valley of the Leu, carving out idyllic spots in deposits of ancient windblown sands. The Leudal nature reserve supports a diverse range of habitats in a relatively small area and is known as a sanctuary for rare birds such as the kingfisher. This brilliantly coloured bird nests in the steep banks of the Leu and Zelster brook.
According to legend, 11.000 beautiful young women were martyred at the hands of the Huns near
Cologne on October 21, AD 451. They were travelling with St. Ursula, daughter of Dionotus, the
Christian king of Cornwall. Ursula was granted a 3 year postponement of a marriage to a pagan
prince she hated.
With 10 ladies in waiting, each of noble birth and attended by a thousand maidens, she finally
embarked on a voyage across the North Sea, sailing up the Rhine through The Netherlands. As the
massacre by pagan Huns took place near rapids in a brook Ursula became the patron saint of
watermillers.
