    The catholic church in the Alfterer village Oedekoven is consecrated to the mother of God Maria. The patronage "Maria (or Assumption)" of this church refers to one of the many commemorative days or feast days in honor of Mary, the Mother of God. It goes back to the feast of their physical acceptance into heaven, which the Church celebrates annually on August 15th.
    In many rural areas it is common for the people to collect herbal bundles (called "Kruggweusch" in the Rhenish dialect) on this day and bless them in the festival service.
    Translated by
    The chapel of St. Mary's Marriage was built in Oedekoven around 1756. In addition, the Church of St. Mary of the Assumption, designed by Emil Stefann, was built in 1955/56.
