    Saint Anna is the mother of the Blessed Mother Mary, who is not attested in the biblical texts, i.e. the grandmother of Jesus Christ. However, it is mentioned in apocryphal (i.e. not included in the canon of the Bible) writings, for example in the so-called โ€œProtoevangelium of Jamesโ€. There is no historically reliable information about Anna's life, but there are numerous traditional stories, which are summarized, for example, in the medieval "Legenda Aurea" by the Dominican monk Jacobus de Voragine. Among other things, she is the patron of the Annakirche in Dรผren (North Rhine-Westphalia, DE), where a piece of her skull is kept as a relic.
    In the church calendar, the memorial day of Saint Anne - together with her husband Joachim - is on July 26th.

      An unfortunately completely dilapidated church that is now used for art exhibitions.
