    Tips

    Particularly worth seeing in Niehl is the "Alt St. Katharina" church, consecrated in 1260, also known as "Niehler Dömchen". The Romanesque west tower of the church, which probably dates from the 12th century, is the oldest structure in Niehl.
    The Niehler Dömchen, the little sister of Cologne Cathedral, was once the only place of worship far and wide, so that all residents of Nippes and Mauenheim had to accept a 45-minute walk on Sundays.

      Alt St. Katharina - a little highlight on the Rheinaue. Looks very nice.
