The local museum "Beim Müller-Schorschen de Scheier" exhibits typical relics from the past of a Rheinhessen village. The museum was opened on May 23, 2009, and can be visited after prior short-term arrangement.
Above the village, the "Rondell" – a natural monument – offers a resting place for hikers and cyclists. The Rheinhessian Jakob Pilgrimage Trail, which is also suitable for cyclists in this area, leads directly past the new Vendersheim Tower. From here, you have a wonderful view over the Rheinhessian landscape and its vineyards all the way to the Donnersberg and, in good weather, to the skyline of Frankfurt. At the large winemaker's table next to the tower, even large groups can comfortably take a break together at one table.

The city master builder Eduard Kreyßig (1830–1897) is responsible for giving the Neustadt its defining architectural and urban character, even though World War II left severe damages. Many Gründerzeit buildings, some with magnificent facades, as well as the prominently visible Christuskirche have, however, been preserved. In recent years, a careful renovation of the district has taken place. Modern architects and artists have enriched the appearance of the Neustadt with their buildings and artworks – for example,…
Where today the street "An der Bachwiese" runs, the mill stream used to flow. This was an artificially created watercourse, fed by the springs on the Neuberg and in the Großen Wiese.
