history

The first historical mention as "Rumenthorp" comes from the year 941. In the Middle Ages the settlement belonged to the Kölngau and in its later time came to the office of Brühl in the Electorate of Cologne as Rondorf . In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the place. In the Napoleonic era, Mairie Rondorf of the same name was named after the place in its center and belonged to the canton of Brühl in the Cologne arrondissement of the Département de la Roer . In 1815 the mayor's office in Rondorf in the Cologne district was created . 1888 places Bayenthal, Klettenberg, Marienburg, Raderberg, Raderthal and ruler were spun off from the community Rondorf and in the city of Cologne incorporated . The places Godorf , Immendorf , Meschenich , Rodenkirchen , Rondorf, Sürth and Weiß remained in the community .

The Johannishof is one of the oldest farmsteads in the area

In 1961 the community of Rondorf was renamed "Gemeinde Rodenkirchen" and in 1975 it was incorporated into Cologne. Much of the development comes from the 1930s and the post-war period.

Catholic Church

Former Dreikönigskirche with an attached tower

The “Heilige Drei Könige” church, built in 1900 in neo-Gothic style, expanded by a tower in 1957, is no longer used as a place of worship. It was profaned in 1987 and converted into an architecture office. While the nave is not only used as an office, but also as an exhibition space and concert hall, the architects live with their families in the tower of the former church.

The old church was replaced in 1987-89 by the new parish church of the Holy Three Kings .
