History and architecture

Tower of the Church of St. Dionysius

The community was founded by Countess Reinmod around 1022/1023 and made a parish in 1900 . The three-bay hall of the church was built in quarry stone from 1696 to 1701. The core of the west tower is probably older. The transept and the 5/8 choir were built from sandstone blocks by Aloys Kersting from 1902 to 1903. The external appearance is dominated by the tall, neo-Gothic extension. The ribbed vaults rest on consoles. The colored windows were made by Derix stained glass based on a design by Friedrich Stummel .
