The Passport of Johann Steur

One of the things my great-uncle "ome" Ab Steer (1901-1974) and great-aunt "tante" Jo Steer-Klomp (1906-1978) left was an old passport. This passport was signed in 1801 and belonged to a "Johann Steur", apparently one of my great-uncle "ome" Ab's ancestors.

From the passport it is obvious that Johann was a soldier who served in the army of the Bataafsche Republiek.

Apparently he joined the Army at the end of April 1794.

I am still puzzled by the mentioned Place of Birth of Johann. As far as I can read it, it says Kirchen angel. But still I haven't found a place that looks like this. I have been looking via Google, maps, etc. Since the name sounds very German, I have mainly looked in Germany. If you have any idea about what the place might be, please drop me a note!
