Here at the northern end of Rinderbachstraße stood a covered double gate structure in the Middle Ages. It controlled the access to and from Nieder-Ingelheim and led directly to the so-called small market near St. Remigius.
The remains of the old gate were rebuilt for residential purposes in the early 19th century in the style of a gatehouse; however, this change had to be demolished due to its dilapidated condition. Only one side pillar remained, which is connected to the outer walls of the former apothecary's residence.
About halfway down Rinderbach, the former hospital chapel dedicated to St. Justus (also known as "St. Jost," "St. Jodokus"), established in 1387 by the widow of Johann von Melwald, is accessible via a small access path, the Spitalgasse. This small, east-facing house of worship was secularized during the Reformation in 1565 and left to decay. Some structural changes were made for its use as a residential building. Nevertheless, the building is considered a rare, largely well-preserved example of a medieval hospital chapel in the region.
The disappeared hospital building, founded in the 12th/13th century at a bountiful spring, served for centuries, until the French Revolution, as a refuge for the poor, the needy, orphans, the elderly, and also for travelers.
