history
The former miners' village, first mentioned in a document in 1334, is separated from the Kautenbach into two denominational parts. In the 18th century the village experienced a certain boom due to mining. The Catholic branch church of St. Maria Himmelfahrt was built in the Catholic district from 1871–1874 .
For the Protestant residents of Kautenbach, who still belong to the parish of Bernkastel-Kues today, the small church was built at the end of the 19th century and consecrated on September 5, 1897.
