Popular around Kronenburger Lake
The Kyll is a typical Eifel river: relatively narrow, fast-flowing and very close to nature. Southeast of Kronenburg, it forms meandering floodplain landscapes with wet meadows, alder and willow stands. Precisely these sections are protected as the "Kyllaue" nature reserve because many other river sections of the Kyll have been straightened or more heavily used.

This house of God has chosen the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary as its patronage. Her birth is not specifically mentioned in the biblical writings of the New Testament, nor are her parents, but early apocryphal (i.e., not included in the canon of the official Bible) writings have named Saint Anne and her husband Saint Joachim as parents. The Church of St. Anne – located on the Sea of Bethesda in Jerusalem – is considered the site of the Blessed Mother's childhood home. The Catholic Church celebrates the feast day of "Nativity of Mary" on September 8, as do Orthodox and Anglican Christians.
