Kerspe Dam

Highlight • Lake

The dam is a drinking water protection area, and access to the dam wall is prohibited. This inevitably gives you the opportunity to view the quarry stone wall from "behind." The perspective is unique, as it brings the dimensions of the dam to life.

This church, built in 1869 in the neo-Gothic style, has a magnificent high altar in the choir. The confessional on the left side of the nave also dates from this period.
The church has an organ by Heinz Wilbrand from Übach-Palenberg; it was installed in 1997. The inventory includes a neo-Gothic high altar from 1869 and a confessional, a sun monstrance dated 1836 and a chalice by the Cologne goldsmith Leo Moldrickx. A crucifixion group from 1730 is of art-historical importance; it is probably the work of the Cologne-based sculptor van Helmont. Of the former neo-Gothic pulpit, only the small statuettes of the evangelists and the figure of Jesus have survived. The large number of sculptures in the church and the sacristy is remarkable. A stone inscription tablet and a coat of arms relief come from the old predecessor church. partly from: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kreuzberg_(Wipperf%C3%BCrth)
