Richterich
Richterich is a borough and northwestern suburb of Aachen, Germany. The towns of Horbach and Huf belong to the borough, which borders the other Aachen borough of Laurensberg, as well as the Kohlscheid borough of Herzogenrath. It is assumed that the histories of Richerich and Horbach go back a long time, since the name is suggestive of a Celtic settlement. In Roman times, the attested name of the area was ''recteriacum''. Buildings and history The most historically important buildings in the borough are the St. Martin Church (inaugurated 1791), the Schönau Castle (''Schloss Schönau''), and the water fortress Heyden House (''Haus Heyden''), in Horbach.
