Where to stay in Soers
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Soers runs to fields, not frontage: the ground between Aachen-Mitte and the Lousberg holds the Old Tivoli, Tivoli Sports and a good deal of open wetland, and very little in the way of rooms. Aachen books the beds. A match at Tivoli Sports or a visit to the Fernmeldemuseum Aachen is the usual reason to be out here, and since Soers begins at the border of Aachen-Mitte, a central Aachen room stays within reach of both.

About Soers
What are the main landmarks in Soers?
Football put Soers on the map, by way of the Old Tivoli, the former stadium of Alemannia Aachen, and the Tivoli name still attaches to the sports ground listed here. The Fernmeldemuseum Aachen is listed here too. Tivoli Sports carries the newer half of that story, while the Lousberg slopes and the wetland along the Wurm give the district the rest of what a visitor would come out to see.
What is the history of Soers?
Water shaped it first. Soers is a wetland drained by several rivers, and the Wurm carries its water out as the only drain of the Rur River anywhere in the Aachen Basin. No founding year is recorded for the community, which reaches the register as a mostly rural part of Aachen-Laurensberg rather than as a settlement with a charter of its own.
Alemannia Aachen left the Old Tivoli behind.
Where is Soers?
Wetland underlies Soers, a stretch running from the border of Aachen-Mitte past the slopes of the Lousberg and drained by the Wurm.
