Baunach is generally worth a detour. The Felsenkeller has nice staff, delicious Reckendorfer beer, and has been under new management since October 25th. Recommended

Mario Amico (KAB Düsseldorf) writes about the patron saint of this church: “In a time when many people are searching for guidance, Saint Francis Xavier invites us to be messengers ourselves – in our daily lives, in our surroundings. This means bearing witness through our actions, our words, and our love. For the message of the Gospel remains alive when we share it with love, joy, and courage. This saint is therefore a perfect fit for Advent,” which also includes the feast day of Saint Francis Xavier in the liturgical calendar: December 3rd.
