    Hiking

    In 1939, in the middle of the National Socialist era, the neighborhood had a cross built at the Bahnhofstrasse / Kronenstrasse intersection.
    "It is obvious that the inscription 'In the cross alone is salvation' was opposed to the [other calls for salvation of that time]" (Source: H.D. Flamme in "Road crosses in the municipality of Alfter. Small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety", Alfter 2014)
