Adelheid von Vilich Church, Roman Catholic church in Müllekoven, Germany

Adelheid von Vilich Church is a Roman Catholic church in Müllekoven built from 1962 to 1964 to plans by Cologne architect Gottfried Böhm. The red brick exterior has two round towers of unequal height, each capped by a steep dark grey conical roof with a small spire; a lower brick building with a dark sloped roof connects them. Inside, a box-shaped hall with brick walls and a flat ceiling opens to a white altar area, and a cylindrical brick baptismal chapel holds stained glass with white and yellow water lily motifs.

Construction started in 1962 following a chapel association formed by local residents in the 1950s to serve the growing parish in this area. The building was consecrated on November 15, 1964, marking completion of this new structure for the Catholic community.

The dedication to St. Adelheid of Vilich, first abbess of Vilich Abbey, recalls Müllekoven's centuries-old link to that foundation. Inside, the 1596 Baroque crucifix above the altar was acquired by Gottfried Böhm from Switzerland and refinished by Sepp Hürten in 1990.

The church stands in Müllekoven, a district of Troisdorf; the brick building is entered through the box-shaped hall, whose flat ceiling and brick walls lead the eye to the white altar area. The altar area opens upward toward the roof tower, whose glazed south side lets daylight fall onto the marble altar, ambo and seats made by Sepp Hürten in 1990. The baptismal chapel is a separate cylindrical brick structure, half open to the interior.

The four bronze bells were cast in 1964 by Hans Hüesker at the Petit & Gebr. Edelbrock foundry in Gescher. The church also holds a Baroque crucifix from 1596 that Gottfried Böhm acquired in Switzerland and that was regilded in 1990.
