Wayside Cross

Highlight • Monument

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus.
So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.”
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Crossroads... small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

Here is a reminder of an air raid from World War II.
There is also a bench and a wastebasket for a break. Nice view of Nörvenich.

You can read the history of the footbridge over the Neffelbach to connect the Mohle to the city center on a board here. The first bridge was built in 1984 and was renewed in 2016 due to dilapidation.
There is also information about the aquatic animals here.

Hike in and around Nörvenich.

Nörvenich is a municipality in the Düren district in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

A hike over fields and meadow paths

always along the edge of the town.

The highlight was Nörvenich Castle - the Harff Castle

as well as the churches, which unfortunately, like so many churches, were once again closed.

This wind is wonderful, at times I had to really brace myself against it to be able to continue. But a quick walk before the visitors arrive was a must. Greetings and have a nice Sunday. 🙋‍♀️

I just love windy autumn weather; it makes it hard for me to stay indoors. Cycling was too risky for me, so I just did the local loop along the Neffelbach stream. Thanks to Storm Benjamin, I was able to pick up a bag of walnuts along the way, a great gift. My winter stash is replenished 😀. Have a …
