Kommern, District in Mechernich, Germany.

Numerous half-timbered buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries line the streets of Kommern's historic center, forming a complete architectural ensemble.

The first written record of Kommern dates back to 1229 when Heinrich von Arenberg acquired hunting rights in the area then known as Cumbirne.

The LVR Open Air Museum, established in 1958, displays over 70 historical buildings representing different regions of Rhineland, including farmhouses, mills, and workshops.

The district connects to major cities through VRS bus line 808 linking to Mechernich and Euskirchen, with additional student transport service on line 893.

The medieval castle, built around 1350, features a baroque extension with symmetrical courtyard facades added in the 18th century, remaining central to the district's appearance.
