ホーエンラインバッハのおすすめツーリングルート

From the car park, a pedestrian tunnel leads under the road to the abbey

Unfortunately, you have to cycle on a country road without a bike path. In heavy traffic, caution is advised when crossing the Abtei road.

This former mine wheel serves as a reference to the nearby mine museum.

Very nice pond south of Hohenleimbach.

The three-story columned altar dates from the 18th century. In the niches of each level are figures of a Baroque guardian angel leading a child by the hand, of St. John of Nepomuk, and a Madonna. The Archangel Michael with sword and scales crowns the altar. In 2009, the saints' figures were extensively restored. Paul Clemen (1941) described them as "good craftsmanship of the 18th century." Clemen continues: "In the niche, a new figure, above it a good Baroque figure of ... Nepomuk ... at the end, a coarse Baroque figure of the Archangel Michael..." The "new figure" he refers to is possibly the guardian angel. The current altar figure probably stood in Kempenich at the time, because in Paul Clemen's (1941) work, the figure can be seen on page 256 as illustration 213.

This extraordinary house is run by Lebenshilfe.

This wayside shrine is located in a beautiful spot and offers a beautiful view of Kempenich from a bench.

The church's patron saint suggests its great age. It was first mentioned in 1330 in the Taxa generalis of the Archdiocese of Trier. The Romanesque west tower dates to the beginning of the 13th century. The core of the nave, which still stands today, was built around 1470. Around 1728, the choir was enlarged, and a sacristy was added to the south side of the east bay of the nave. Along with other minor alterations over time, the expansion between 1904 and 1906 was the most significant. Under the direction of the Bonn architect Johann Adam Rüppel, the northern aisle was renovated and a southern aisle was added. This created the current four-aisled hall church. In 1919, the western gallery was built from tuff stone in neo-Gothic style.
