Berschweiler lies in the Westrich, an historic region that encompasses areas in both Germany and France.

The following are listed buildings or sites in Rhineland-Palatinate’s Directory of Cultural Monuments:[5] Besides the gymnastic and sport club (which has a team partnership with FC Westrich Mettweiler, as SG Unnertal) and the volunteer fire brigade, there is also a shooting club that can already boast of some successes at the national level.

Owing to its location on the Autobahn feeder road to the A 62 (Kaiserslautern–Trier), the village has at its disposal very good transport links.

The municipality has at its disposal two football pitches, a cinder lot on the Bornberg somewhat outside the village and a grass playing field in the outlying centre of Berggrube.

In the old village centre at the marketplace is found the Haus Albert, which offers both a restaurant and overnight accommodation.
