The Catholic parish church of St. Germanus in Niederzissen, a municipality in the Ahrweiler district of Rhineland-Palatinate, is a listed church building. The church is dedicated to St. Germanus of Auxerre. The original church was built in the mid-12th century; the lower stories of the tower are all that remain of this original structure. A new building was erected after 1225 in the transitional style between Romanesque and Gothic. Extensive renovations and repairs were carried out in 1832, 1839, 1906/07, and 2007. In 1862, the church tower was raised and given a rhomboid roof. From 1966 to 1968, the building was extended according to a design by Heinrich Otto Vogel with a heptagonal, tent-shaped addition and a roof turret. The church is a three-aisled basilica with three bays and groin vaults. The chancel has a five-sided apse. The tower is slightly recessed. The Romanesque baptismal font is particularly valuable. On the east side of the church is a 165 cm high relief depicting Saint Germanus. It was created from tuff stone by the sculptor Hans Gerhard Biermann. Three historic bells hang in the church tower: the oldest is the Christ the King bell from 1337; the other two are the Mary bell from 1462 and the St. Sebastian bell from 1728. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Germanus_(Niederzissen)

Here, the various climbs can be combined into pleasant tours.

For me, it was the destination of the first stage of the Eifel Ladder. I was picked up by the innkeeper at my guesthouse.

Eddy wouldn't have kicked that thing around either😂

For pedestrians and cyclists, a ride on the Brohltalbahn is worthwhile. The end point is ideal as a starting point for a short or long hiking or cycling tour. Alternatively, you can return by train.

Station of the Vulkanexpress from the Rhine (Brohl-Lützing) to the Eifel (Engeln)

In an idyllic location: a small white chapel

Strenuous climb on good terrain with great views: reward is the rapid descent to Kempenich
