Even before 1851 there was a simple chapel in Krinkhof, which could be used for common prayers, but not to celebrate a holy mass. It was therefore decided in 1851 to build a new and larger chapel. On October 16, 1853, today's chapel in honor of St. Michael, the patron saint of the Germans, will be blessed. The altar comes from the altar builder Karl Frank from Trier and, according to the Hontheim municipality's inventory book, was purchased in 1902 for 1,400 marks. The church is owned by the local community of Hontheim.

A nice atmosphere inside the church. It's nice to put up a candle.
