Tips from the Community
The obelisk of this war memorial is crowned by an eagle, the proud heraldic animal of many nations. The dialect group „Bläck Fööss“ from Cologne (North Rhine-Westphalia, DE) has written a song about a memorial for fallen soldiers in the Südstadt of Cologne, which is also crowned by an eagle. The text by Hans Knipp reads: „Doch sulang dä Adler steit op däm Stein, sulang es et jot, den dann als hä domols floch, jo do braat hä nur Elend un Nut. Wenn ich su vür im ston en singem Schatten, dann denk ich an dich un mich, un ich han nur dä eine Wunsch, dat dä Adler nie widder flüch.“ Those who are not afraid of the Rhenish dialect and would like to listen to the anti-war song by Bläck Fööss can do so at the following link =>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKjl50KrqC0 But as long as the eagle stands on the stone, everything is good, because when it flew back then, it only brought misery and need. When I stand before it like this, in its shadow, I think of you and me, And I have only one wish, that the eagle never flies again.

The listed church in Reinersdorf, built in 1902, is dedicated to the Ascension of Christ. Here, on the hilltop, you will also find rest areas, as well as the war memorial, the cemetery with a chapel, and a crucifix.

What an original idea at the entrance to the church in Heiligenbrunn! Wouldn't it be nice to sit next to it as a photo opportunity? :)

A small, charming chapel in a beautiful spot. From here you have a wonderful view and – in the warmer months – you can also take a break. Unfortunately, the bench is not there in winter.
