Catholic Church St. Anna, Ratingen Lintorf

Catholic Church St. Anna, Ratingen Lintorf, Catholic church in Ratingen Lintorf, Germany.

St. Anna is a Catholic church in Ratingen Lintorf, a 19th-century religious building displaying Romanesque Revival features such as rounded arches and solid stone construction. The structure and exterior showcase decorative details that are characteristic of this architectural style.

A Romanesque church stood in Lintorf from the 11th or 12th century, and the parish became independent in the 15th century. In 1632 Pappenheim mercenaries looted the decaying medieval building. Pastor Bernhard Schmitz had it demolished around 1876/1877 and commissioned Cologne architect August Carl Lange to build the present church, begun in May 1877. It was blessed on 28 July 1878, during the Kulturkampf, and consecrated only on 14 August 1893 by auxiliary bishop Anton Fischer.

The parish's patronal feast is celebrated on 28 July, the feast of Saint Anne, the date of the church's 1878 benediction. The building holds a bell cast in 1484, a 15th-century oak Pietà and a Madonna with Grapes from the early 16th century, all carried over from the medieval predecessor church. Since 2009 St. Anna has been the main church of a merged parish that also includes St. Bartholomäus in Hösel, St. Christophorus in Breitscheid and St. Johannes von Ars.

The church stands in Lintorf, a district of Ratingen; the tower clock was only installed on 31 August 2004, so look for it near the top of the spire. The building is open for Masses and is the main church of the parish of St. Anna formed in 2009, which also includes the branch churches of St. Bartholomäus in Hösel, St. Christophorus in Breitscheid and St. Johannes von Ars. Visitors should dress and behave as in any Catholic church and confirm service times locally.

The church keeps a bell cast in 1484, a 15th-century oak Pietà and a Madonna with Grapes from the early 16th century, all carried over from the medieval predecessor. Two medieval bells were melted down in 1944; the tower only received a clock on 31 August 2004.
