Five exclaves created by a Belgian railway
track that cuts into German territory between the German towns of Rötgen and
Monschau, south of Aachen. Belgium owns the railway track with the territory on
which it is built, making enclaves out of the five pieces of land separated from
the rest of Germany.
The exclaves are called Munsterbildchen, Rötgener
Wald [which comprises the southern parts of the town of Rötgen], Rückschlag, Mützenich and
Ruitzhof.
At boundary marker no. 750 it may look on this
Belgian map like the Mützenich enclave is connected to Germany proper over the
railroad. But the Germans, who show the road as Belgian would surely be
the most likely of the two parties to show it correctly if it was German.
Therefore we conclude that Mützenich is a German exclave.
