    Tips

    June 11, 2021

    Saint Martin, to whom the church is consecrated here in the Rheinbach district of Hilberath, is - next to Saint Nicholas - probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous “coat sharing”, when he surrendered half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He converted to Christianity and was later elected Bishop of Tours - initially against his will.
    Many should have fond childhood memories of lantern handicrafts in kindergarten and elementary school, the evening lantern parade through the dark village / district - and of course of the delicious “Weckmann”.

        Unfortunately closed, so we couldn't admire the interior of the church.
