GOLF CLUB AM ALTEN FLIESS
🇩🇪 Bergheim, North Rhine-Westphalia, DE
Designed by Kurt Rossknecht
Golf Club Am Alten Fliess sits in Bergheim, a town in the Rhineland region of North Rhine-Westphalia between Cologne and Aachen. The club's Rot course was designed by Kurt Rossknecht, a German architect active in the latter decades of the twentieth century who contributed to the development of golf infrastructure across Germany during a period of significant growth in the sport. The course occupies relatively flat terrain characteristic of the lower Rhine valley, where open agricultural land transitions into designed parkland settings.
The routing takes advantage of the site's mature tree plantings and water features, including channels and ponds that reference the "Alten Fliess" — old watercourse — in the club's name. These water elements come into play on several holes and provide both strategic interest and visual definition across the layout. The course serves a regional membership and reflects the practical, accessible design philosophy common to many German clubs established or expanded during the sport's growth in the 1980s and 1990s.
Bergheim's location in the Cologne-Bonn metropolitan area places the club within reach of a substantial golfing population. The facility includes additional nine-hole layouts, making it a multi-course venue typical of clubs in densely populated parts of western Germany. The Rot course functions as the primary championship-length test among the club's offerings, hosting regional competitions and member events throughout the season.
