Aegidienberg is a district of Bad Honnef in the Rhein-Sieg-Kreis, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It consists of thirteen villages and is located east of the Siebengebirge range in the Niederwesterwald foothills. Until 1969, Aegidienberg was an independent municipality in the former district (''Kreis'') of Sieg. The name refers to Saint Aegidius, the patron saint of the local Catholic parish church; until the 16th century, the locality was known as ''Hunferode'' or ''Honnefer Rott''.〔Paul Clemen, rev. Edmund Renard, ''Die Kunstdenkmäler der Rheinprovinz'', Volume 5.4 ''Die Kunstdenkmäler des Siegkreises'', Düsseldorf: Schwann, 1907, , p. 713 〕 Population: 7089 (2013). == Geography == The district of Aegidienberg encompasses the parts of Bad Honnef located east of the Honnef urban forest, in other words east of the Siebengebirge. In geographic terms, the area forms part of the Asbach plateau in the foothills of the Niederwesterwald. The various parts of the district are distributed across hills which all lie within the broader boundary of the Siebengebirge Nature Park. The Siebengebirge itself, with its peaks up to in height, separates Aegidienberg from Bad Honnef, which is about away in the Rhine Valley. Aegidienberg is located at an average altitude approximately above Bad Honnef. The two are linked by Landesstraße 144 through the long Schmelz Valley. Within Aegidienberg are two small lakes, Lake Himberg (''Himberger See'') in the West and Lake Dachsberg (''Dachsberger See'') in the East. Both are former basalt quarries, which were worked until after the Second World War. Two streams which are sources of the Pleisbach, the Logebach and the Quirrenbach, rise in the area and run through it. The Kochenbach is a tributary of the Quirrenbach. Amongst the hills within the district of Aegidienberg are the Himberg (), the Hupperichsberg (〔According to the ''Deutsche Grundkarte''; topographic map, 〕), the Markhövel (also called the Romert; ) and the Dachsberg (〔According to the ''Deutsche Grundkarte''; topographic map, 〕)—the last being the highest point in the district. The main village of Aegidienberg, on the eponymous hill, is at altitude. Within the district are two contiguous forest areas, the Aegidienberg Forest (''Aegidienberger Wald'') to the East and the Vogelsbitze to the West of the A3 autobahn. At the eastern extremity of the district, part of the Eudenbach gliding area and nature reserve lies within Aegidienberg. The District of Aegidienberg includes 13 localities: Aegidienberg (Kirchdorf), Brüngsberg, Efferoth, Himberg, Höhe, Hövel, Neichen, Orscheid, Retscheid, Rottbitze, Siefenhoven, Wintersberg and Wülscheid. The Rottlandhof farm is within the municipality of Rheinbreitbach, but portions of it lie within the territory of Aegidienberg and thus of Bad Honnefer. The district is bordered to the North-West by Ittenbach and to the North and North-East by the Oberhau, both sections of the city of Königswinter, and to the East and South by Windhagen and Rheinbreitbach, both of which are in Rhineland-Palatinate.
