Genovevaburg is the symbol of Mayen and has been rebuilt several times since first being destroyed in 1689.
Its name comes from a legend, according to which the seats of counts palatine, Siegfried and his wife, Genevieve of Brabant (in German: Genoveva), were supposed to be on the same hill in (or above) Mayen.
