Beschrijving    English (Engels)

This cache can be searched and found like any other traditional cache...

...but...

...it can be the starting point for an international cooperation as well. This cache is just one cache of a set of 30 caches named European IMC No.1 (IMC stands for International Multi Cache).

These caches are hidden in following (15) European countries:

Austria (A), Belgium (B), Denmark (DK), Finland (FIN), France (F), Germany (D), Great Britain (GB), Hungary (H), Ireland (IRL), Italy (I), Luxembourg (L), Netherlands (NL), Portugal (P), Spain (E) and Sweden (S).

In each country there is a primary cache like this one and a secondary cache that can only be found with hints distributed to all primary caches. The (15) primary caches are named: European IMC No.1 P-X-Yyy and the (15) secondary caches are named: European IMC No.1 S-X-Zzz where x is the country code given above and Yyy and Zzz can be any additional name.

The hints for the secondary caches are printed on lists of hints that are inside the primary caches. As the primary caches are scattered all over Europe it will either require a lot of travelling or - and that is the intention of the European IMC No.1 – international cooperation.

If you want to find the secondary cache as well, you should contact finders of other primary European IMC No.1 caches and exchange the hints. And please don't be a poor sport! Never publish the hints anywhere! Not in a log report or on any website. The hints shall only be exchanged / traded between geocachers that found the primary caches and want to search the secondary caches. The European IMC No.1 team wish you good luck!

   Secondary cache in this Country



You can park your car at the coordinates given above. Go in the direction of the castle and look for the tree “Geriichtslann” at N 49° 54.356 E 006° 04.684.
An inscription on the wall of the tower will tell you when this tree was planted. Transform this date into DDMMYYYY format, and assign this number to ABCDEFGH.
You will find the cache nearby:
at N 49° 54.(H-D+E,D,B-2A) E 006° 04.(D-E,A,H-D)

Besides some goodies it contains a logbook with several copies of a list of hints for the Secondary Caches. Please take one with you and keep it in case some other geocacher asks you for any of the hints.

Don’t forget to visit the castle itself – it’s really worth this visit!
At http://www.bourscheid.net/ (button: description) you will find everything you need to know about the opening schedule.

This cache is of interest of all European Geocachers. Please, log in English, too.

Mooi kasteel en cache gevonden.

Gevonden The geocache needs maintenance. 10. juni 2018, 07:52 harrieklomp heeft de cache gevonden

Today i went to Luxembourg to check a old cache that is now published on OCNL.

The coordinates where easy to calculate and the cache was easy to find.

The cache is extreamly wet and could use some maintenance.

Thanks for showing this nice place.

Greetings,

Danke für den Cache

Celle-ci est la première open cache que je trouve. En effet, adepte du GC, je me suis dit que je devais profiter de mon passage en pays germanophone (ou presque) pour essayer OC.
Nous commençons par rechercher les indices. Puis nous allons faire la visite du château. Je la conseille vivement. Quelle merveille ! Quelle belle reconstruction ! Quelle belle visite ! Un incontournable de le région. Merci pour cette cache qui sera trouvée rapidement.

Welch schöne Burg. Die Linde übersieht man gern. Die Koordinaten waren schnell ermittelt und die Dose flugs gefunden. DfdD

What a beautyful castle. The linden might be ignored. The final koordinates and the cache where good to find. TftC

The listing isn't very good for paperless caching on Oregon devices. By chance, I had this one on my smartphone to read all required questions for stage 1 and final formula.

The cache itself is now a micro, no infos about the others IMC caches. What a pity! icon_smile_sad.gif I did already another international co-workers cache and liked this style of cooperation.

Anyway, nice castle and a stop over, I wouldn't have done without this cache!

TFTC, Katzenohr

All good things come in threes.
Ok ok, it's a lie ... it was only the third cache of Captain Cook this day. I've found four [;)]
But this one was the most impressing one: the castle is realy impressive and beside gecaching reenactment (beeing a monk in a mediaeval group of knights) is my favourite hobby. So the castle was the right place to discover for me. I regret that I hadn't the time to explore all of its sekrects [;)]
The cache was boldly hidden: lying in the view of every walker but so well hidden that they pass the box unseen. On the other hand every geocacher will find it immediately.

I found a "sad" cache here, because he was a little bit wet and there was no logbook in the cache. I tried to dry the cache a little bit and put a new logbook into the cache, but I think it should be controlled by the owner.

+ Logbook, pencil

P.S. There ist no TB inside the cache

Third Cpt. Cook cache today. Well, made it in the wrong order - have been to the secondary cache first then to this one :-))
Crossing the street near the location someone said Hello - obviously another team. After solving the first task and finding the cache we returned to our car and met again members of the team met before and had some nice talks. So incidently we have met the Squirrel-Family :-)) Hope to meet you at the Daun meeting on July, 12th.
Very professional logbook inside the cache and a marvelous castle nearby.
