Usually, it is one, occasionally two, named saints who exercise the patronage over a church – and thus also over the associated congregation. However, in the case of this Cologne church in Lindenthal (sometimes called the "Böhm Church" after the family of architects spanning several generations), a different decision was taken: It was dedicated not to one of the – almost infinitely numerous – saints, but to Jesus Christ himself. Specifically, to his resurrection. This special and comparatively rare patronage broadens the Christian perspective from the cross of Good Friday to the Easter perspective of hope. For suffering and death are only apparently the end, but – in the infinite love of the Triune God – they are overcome with the resurrection to eternal life.

A nice route for walking towards the city forest. But it can get crowded on weekends when the weather is good.

Always beautiful.

Together with the Rautenstrauch Canal, from which it also receives its water, the Clarenbach Canal forms the Lindenthal Canal system, which has an overflow at Universitätsstraße leading to the Aachener Weiher. The canals create a radial connection between the inner and outer green belts of Cologne, viewing water as an urban design element. The Clarenbach Canal begins at the Italian Cultural Institute and merges westward into the Rautenstrauch Canal. The entire system was realized in 1923 by the Director of Horticulture, Fritz Encke, who thus implemented the idea of Fritz Schumacher's general development plan from 1920 to 1923. The first section of the canal, starting from the Aachener Weiher, was planted with horse chestnut trees at the time of its construction.

The Rautenstrauch Canal, like the Clarenbach Canal, is part of the Lindenthal Canal system, which connects Cologne's inner and outer green belts. It begins with a circular water basin flanked by two sculptures at Karl-Schwering-Platz (a small rose garden is located right next door) and runs in three sections to the Lindenthal Belt. A special feature is the baroque design of the linear canal system, lined with avenues of maple trees. The Rautenstrauch Canal, like the neighboring Clarenbach Canal, was planned in the 1920s by urban planner Fritz Schumacher, whom Mayor Konrad Adenauer had brought to Cologne to implement the green planning. The project was implemented by the then master gardener Fritz Encke. The canal draws its water from the groundwater well near Landgrafenstraße, which was constructed in 2016. From the Rautenstrauch Canal, the water is piped to the Clarenbach Canal and the Aachener Weiher Lake. Since early summer 2020, the Rautenstrauch Canal has featured so-called plant islands. The nutrient uptake by the plants on the islands reduces the excessive growth of aquatic plants and algae in the pond. This benefits the inhabitants of the park's ponds. The plant islands also create structures and new habitats for fish and waterfowl, thus ensuring biodiversity. Last but not least, the islands also visually enhance the Rautenstrauch Canal.

At the end of the 19th century, work began on creating a park pond in Cologne's city forest, which stretches from the Lindenthal district to Junkersdorf and forms one of the city's largest green spaces: the Stadtwaldweiher (now often called the Kahnweiher). This is located on Dürener Straße, in the immediate vicinity of the game reserve in the city forest. It was realized by the city's then garden director, Adolf Kowallek. The system was initially fed by the Frechener Bach stream; later, a pump was installed in the pond, partly to stimulate the flow for an impressive fountain. There are actually two fountains here, with their nozzles located in a shaft in the middle of the park pond, the second of which is powered by a groundwater pump in the Kitschburger Straße shaft well. Starting in 1919, the immediately adjacent Waldweiher pond and small connecting channels between the two bodies of water were also created. Today, the Stadtwaldweiher is a popular destination for families, who can also rent rowing boats and pedal boats here.
