Klimmen (Limburgish: Klumme) is a village in the Dutch province of Limburg. It is located in the municipality of Voerendaal, about 7 km west of Heerlen.
The village was first mentioned in the middle of the 11th century as "de Clumena". The etymology is unclear.[3] Klimmen developed in the Early Middle Ages.[4]
The St Remigius Church is a three aisled basilica-like church. It has 11th or 12th century elements. In the 14th century, the tower was added. The church was redesigned between 1904 and 1906 by Pierre and Joseph Cuypers.[4]
Klimmen was a separate municipality until 1982, when it was merged with Voerendaal.
The Klimmen-Ransdaal railway station opened in 1915 on the Heerlen to Schin op Geul railway line.[5]
