    The Catholic Church of St. Georg in Bornheim-Widdig is located on the St. James Way on the left bank of the Rhine (between Wesseling and Bonn), which leads from Cologne along the Rhine to the south (Koblenz / Bingen ...). It is to be built in such a way that the nave corresponds to an upturned hull.

      Almost nothing reliable is known about Saint George, to whom Widdig's church was dedicated, 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.
      Well known and widespread, however, is the legend of St. George slaying the dragon, usually he is also depicted with the monster. 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.
