Stein is a district of the city of Hennef (Sieg) in the Rhein-Sieg district in North Rhine-Westphalia . Until 1934 the place Stein belonged to the municipality Blankenberg .

location

Stein is up to victory . The village is cut through by the state road 333 . Blankenberg Castle is steeply above the village . Neighboring towns are to the west of Haus Attenbach and Greuelsiefen , to the south of Adscheid and Striefen , to the east of Bülgenauel .

Waters

In addition to the Sieg, the Ahrenbach , whose water drove the Untere Steiner Mühle , and the Limersbach , which flows across the village and flows into the Sieg at Haus Attenbach, also flow into Stein .

Up until the 1950s there was the Untere Steiner Weiher above the Untere Steiner Mühle . This almost 3000 m² pond served as a mill pond for the Lower Steiner Mill . After the mill was shut down, it fell dry. But in 2005, as part of a compensatory measure, an approx. 300 m² pond was created at the old location. Another piece up in the Ahrenbachtal there are three fish ponds. One of these ponds once served as a mill pond for the Upper Steiner Mühle, which has since been demolished .

traffic

In addition to the L 333, the district road 36 also runs through Stein. The Blankenberg S-Bahn stop is on the Sieg line between Stein and Haus Attenbach .

chapel

The Apollonia Chapel in stone

The stone chapel is dedicated to St. Apollonia . The previous chapel was built in 1808 on the initiative of a woman de Rahm. Since the chapel was dilapidated after 50 years, a lady from Blankenberg who was praying there because of a toothache donated 14 thalers for renovation. The building collapsed during the renovation. Another collection made the current chapel possible in 1865. It is a half-timbered building with a small roof turret. In the gable wall is the inscription In honorem St. Apolloniae Virg. et Mart. multorum fidelium pro auxilio me exstruxit Jos. Brenner parochus 1865 . Inside the chapel, next to a wooden altar table and a wooden cross, there is an oil painting on wood with the motif Maria im Rosenhag . Figures of saints line the walls on wooden consoles: Joseph of Nazareth , Cornelius , Barbara , a Madonna from the Merten Monastery , a figure of Christ and St. Apollonia.
