Here the resettlement of Oberbolheim is remembered. The place was not relocated for lignite mining, but because the air base was too close and too noisy. That was a masterly performance by the then mayor.
Oberbolheim has been resettled south to the north-eastern outskirts of Nörvenich. That's only about two kilometers through the Nörvenicher forest.
