The parish church in Gabsheim is one of the oldest and most beautiful churches in Rheinhessen. Its commanding location above the village makes it a prominent point for the entire surroundings. The exterior of this uniformly styled Gothic church at the edge of the village surprises with its magnificent interior. The single-nave longitudinal building, constructed around 1490, was converted into a hall between 1510 and 1518. The relatively short space, divided by four pillars into three equally high ships, is spanned by a sophisticated net…
The clock tower, which is under monumental protection, is the landmark of the municipality Neu-Bamberg. Once it belonged to the 3 gates of the town fortification. The village owes its origin to the Neue Baumburg (Novo Boinburc), which was founded by the Raugrafen in 1253 and whose ruins still characterise the townscape today. Restored half-timbered houses, farms, gardens and the old water house give the village centre on the castle hill its unique charm.
The Lutheran church in the west of the city centre was built between 1910 and 1912 according to plans by Prof. Friedrich Pützer. It is easy to recognise the strong echoes of Darmstadt Art Nouveau with sparse ornamentation on the outside. The octagonal Luther rose appears several times throughout the church. The single-nave hall building has a pulpit altar.

In 1926, Rabbis Levi and Salfeld united prominent gravestones to create a memorial cemetery, in order to make the Jewish heritage visible and emphasize the community's location in Magenza and Germany. The oldest preserved…
