St. Anthony

St. Anthony features a three-nave neo-Romanesque basilica design with two main towers and a central tower structure near the Oberkassler Bridge on Luegallee.

The church construction began in 1905 under architect Josef Kleesattel's guidance, with interior renovations carried out between 1974 and 1986 to repair World War II damage.

The church maintains a collection of modern paraments created by artists Ingrid Heinz and Jeanette Karbig for liturgical celebrations throughout the year.

The building holds regular religious services and musical events, featuring a three-part organ system with components in the gallery, side altar, and above the dome.

Seven bronze bells cast in 1959 form one of the largest bell systems in the Archdiocese of Cologne, with the main bell weighing 5000 kilograms.
