Detailed description

RC Parish Church St. Peter in Ketten
This is the oldest church in the lower Westerwald region. The first wooden structure of 940 was replaced in 959 by a second church on stone foundations, dedicated to Saint George and Saint Peter. Building on the present church was started at the end of the 12th century and completed in the middle of the 14th century. Later on it was repeatedly refurbished and rebuilt as a result of fires and structural damage. The last complete refurbishment was in 2003 - 2007.

TIP: In the church porch there are leaflets which provide detailed information on the architecture and history of the church.
