    The patronage "Assumption of Mary" of the Blankenheim church, located about halfway between the village and the castle (today a youth hostel), refers to one of the many memorial or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Mary. It goes back to the feast of her bodily ascension into heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th.
