The patronage "Assumption of Mary" of this Cologne church - also home to the Italian parish of the cathedral city - refers to one of the many days of commemoration or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Maria. It goes back to the feast of their physical acceptance into heaven, which the Church celebrates annually on August 15th.
In many rural areas it is common for the people to collect herbal bundles (called "Kruggweusch" in the Rhenish dialect) on this day and bless them in the festival service.
