St. Clemens is a former boatmen's church in the Cologne district of Mülheim, on the right bank of the Rhine. The church, which stands directly on the banks of the Rhine, was built as a Romanesque hall church of the 12th/13th century. For centuries it was a branch church of the parish church of St. Mauritius in Buchheim, was elevated to a parish church after its destruction in 1796 and remained the only Catholic church in Mülheim. With the construction of the new Church of Our Lady in 1864, it lost its parish rights and became a subsidiary church again. Together with seven other churches, it now belongs to the Catholic parish of St. Clemens and Mauritius, which includes the districts of Mülheim, Buchheim and Buchforst.
