The existence of the Protestant church in Dorn-Dürkheim can be reliably traced back to 1245, although the original building was probably constructed almost 400 years earlier. The current building dates mainly from 1618. The church building is a rectangular hall structure and some of the choir walls are still Gothic. Particularly impressive is the originally free-standing tower on the north side, which brings a piece of history to life with its embrasures – without any division into floors.

Only a part of the entrance of the former Lutheran church building is still visible. The sandstone plaque above refers to the year of construction 1753.

With the help of a collection, a modest small church was built and used jointly. As the only church in Frei-Weinheim, it did not have a bell. The Lutherans were assigned to Ober-Ingelheim.…
