Kath. Pfarrkirche St. Quirinus ("Eifeldom") in Langenfeld

Langenfeld

The Catholic parish church of St. Quirinius in Langenfeld is popularly called "Eifeldom" due to its imposing size. It was built between 1894 and 1898 and is inextricably linked to the name of Father Thewes, who came to Langenfeld in 1884. With all his strength he enforces the construction of the present parish church, even without the permission of the authority in Trier. The church was blessed on 16.09.1899 and consecrated on 10.05.1900.

Ettringer Bellerberg - Vulkanparkstation

The Bellerberg volcano was created 200,000 years ago, a cinder cone typical of the Eastern Eifel. The "Ettringer Bellerberg" and the "Kottenheimer Büden" form the western and eastern flanks of the large Bellerberg volcano. From the summit of the "Ettringer Bellerberg" you have a fantastic view of the surrounding volcanic Eastern Eifel.

Katholische Pfarrkirche St. Maximin und Anna

Today's church in Ettringen certainly had several predecessors at this point on the Kirchberg. In 1616 St. Maximinus is mentioned for the first time as patron. The foundation stone of today's church - according to plans by the Cologne architect Vinzenz Statz - was laid on June 9th, 1857 and 4 years later, on September 4th, 1861, the inauguration by Bishop Wilhelm Arnoldi took place.
