The origins of Kettwig can be traced back to the ring of houses surrounding the ancient St. Peter's Church – today the Protestant church on the market square. These houses contained, among other things, a brewery, the sexton's residence, a shop selling postcards and dolls, and the guildhall.

The origin of Kettwige is suspected in the ring of houses around the ancient church of St. Petrus. There is an interesting story behind the pretty houses and the church. Source: essener-ruhr Perlen.de/kettwig/platze/kirchhofnerring/
