Facts and practical information

The Old Church of Kellen is located on Kreuzhofstraße in the formerly independent municipality of Kellen, which is now a district of the district town of Kleve in North Rhine-Westphalia. The Old Church stands on a geest-like elevation, on a site where the former center of the municipality of Kellen was located until the beginning of the 20th century. This is not surprising, since this area offered a certain protection from the regular floods of the Rhine floodplain due to its elevated position. The church is under the patronage of St. Willibrord.
