Hildegard von Bingen left her home monastery on the Disibodenberg between 1147 and 1151 and founded her monastery on the Rupertsberg near the Nahe. In her nearly 30 years on the Rupertsberg, she wrote her main works . During the Thirty Years' War, the monastery was destroyed.

The Zehntscheune is the oldest economic building in the village. The rubble stone building with a hipped roof is believed to have been constructed around 1700. By 1350, all properties of Wackernheim had passed to the Mainz Cathedral Chapter through exchange or purchase from the Abbey of Fulda. From the yields of a total of 481 acres of arable land and vineyards, the tenth part was received. Since the taxes were paid in kind, a larger barn was needed to collect and store them. As early as 1450, a Zehntscheune is mentioned in Wackernheim. In…
The Schillerplatz is one of the central and historically significant squares in Mainz. Named after the poet Friedrich Schiller, it is today a lively meeting place with a striking historical backdrop, characterized by magnificent noble palaces such as the Osteiner Hof and the Erthaler Hof. Its baroque appearance bears witness to the urban development of past centuries, and the square is closely linked to the Mainz Carnival: Every year on November 11th, the fifth season is ceremoniously opened here. In the center of the square, the Carnival…
The Lindenplatz has been the focal point of Zornheim since the Middle Ages and was remodeled in 2015. In the Middle Ages, the local court met here, and the proceedings were held, as was customary at that time, outdoors under a tree. Zornheim chose a lime tree for this purpose, and since 2015, round linden trees have been planted alongside the large lime tree to complete the square. The central design element of the Lindenplatz is the Three Graces fountain, donated by the Peter Eugen Eckes family and realized by the Speyer artist Franz…
The expansive building complex located north of the village (district of Elsheim) includes the courtyard on the plateau edge with adjacent park and agricultural areas extending to the municipal boundary with Schwabenheim. The settlement, created amidst the associated arable land likely through deforestation in the 12th century, belonged to the "Ingelheimer Grund" and only appears in documents in 1307 ("wynthuß berge"). Early owners included, among others, the Monastery of Ingelheimerhausen (1328-1411).
