The steep "Lichjässchen" refers to the "Leichengasse", the path on which the dead were brought to the cemetery. It must have been quite a drudgery, carrying the dead up that mountain path.

A very nice catholic church with a cemetery around it.

Almost nothing reliable is known about the life of Saint George, to whom the church in Seelscheid was consecrated, but the veneration of his person goes back a long way to early Christianity. A martyr who is equated with George is said to have lived in the third century.
On the other hand, the legend of St. George slaying a dragon is well known and widespread; he is usually depicted - on paintings or as a statue - as the conqueror of the monster, often as a knight on horseback.
The day of remembrance of the very popular George - he is among other things the patron saint of the English Kingdom - in the saints calendar is on April 23rd.
