Wayside Cross

Highlight • Religious Site

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus.
So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.”
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Crossroads... small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

Riverside Spot on the Neffelbach

Highlight • River

The creek is accessible in not so many places. This is good for the animals who are not disturbed as much. Here is a place where you then come to the creek.

St. Medardus Church, Nörvenich

Highlight • Religious Site

St. Medardus is one
Catholic church in Nörvenich.
The parish of Saint Medardus was first mentioned in 1177. But the church must have existed earlier. Today's church probably had three previous buildings, the last of which was badly damaged in 1642. The current church was built between 1658 and 1664.
The cross vault of the central nave rests on four mighty round pillars made of shell limestone.
A Medardus relic and a Sebastian relic of the second patron saint were picked up by Flocken in 1668 in Cologne and at the Arnstein monastery.
I really like the altarpiece - it is worth visiting this church!
