Floor monument Church of St. Johann Baptist
The floor monument Church of St. Johann Baptist is located in the Herrenstrunden district of Bergisch Gladbach in the Rheinisch-Bergisches Kreis .
description
The church of St. Johann Baptist in Herrenstrunden is one of the most important examples of medieval chapel and church building in the Bergisches Land . The good state of preservation of the church suggests that previously unknown archaeological evidence of the oldest settlement history of Herrenstrunden is hidden in the ground. This applies to the entire protected area in the area of the church and the surrounding area.
The archaeological soil documents preserved underground not only document the structural development of the church, but are also of historical importance for the associated cultural area of the church with a burial place. In addition, the remains of the wall and trenches preserved in the subsurface with their surrounding and enclosing soil are important for the medieval and early modern settlement and church history of the city of Bergisch Gladbach and the Herrenstrunden district. For these reasons, there is a public interest in its preservation as a permanent ground monument .
Ground monument
The area is entered under No. 17 in the list of archaeological monuments in Bergisch Gladbach .
