The name "Sankt Hubertus" is correct for this church in Schmidt.
The name "Schmugglerkirche" and especially "Sankt Mokka" got it after the church was almost completely destroyed in World War II. The reconstruction was financed with donations, which are said to come from coffee smuggling, among other things.
There are even "Saint Mocha" souvenirs available.

The church continues to provide information for national park visitors.
There is a photovoltaic system on the roof.

The Catholic Church of Saint Hubertus in Nideggen-Schmidt - popularly known by the nickname "Saint Mocca" - is a good example of how a church can also be used: on the one hand, the former baptistery now houses a national park information point, on the other the church roof is a solar power plant. What is particularly impressive in the church is the design of the "Friedenskapelle", which reminds of the many dead from war and tyranny - and thus urges the preservation of peace!
