 Over the centuries, almost all these villages split away from this group once they had their own graveyards.Nowadays, only the dead from Ulmet and Rathsweiler are buried in Ulmet's graveyard.Even though the number of Catholics in Ulmet was quite small, building work on Sacred Heart Church ("Herz-Jesu-Kirche"), a small Catholic church for worshippers from many surrounding villages, began in 1873.
