In 2003, the square in the town center was redesigned. The centerpiece of the square is the fountain. Water bubbles here from a large hewn sandstone, which stands under a shade-giving chestnut tree.
Once you have mastered the challenging ascent along the Höhenweg, you will see the Napoleon Tower on the hill between Ober-Hilbersheim and Sprendlingen. With its signalling arms, it is modelled on a historic telegraph pole and thus attracts the attention of hikers and cyclists from afar. In Napoleonic times, it was used to send the first short messages - the first text messages in history, so to speak - over a distance of around 12 kilometres. The signalling arms are based on the ‘Chappe system’, which was developed by the…
Kneipp Health Facility Please note the following: An important principle when using cold water is that the body must be actively warmed beforehand. Never start an arm bath or foot bath with cold hands or feet! So, if you are not warm yet, make up for it now with brisk movement, such as gymnastics or running. Water treading: lift your feet out of the water with every step (stork walk). Stay in the water only until a strong cold stimulus occurs in your legs. Afterwards, shake off the water and warm up. Have fun and good health wishes…

A grid gate leads to the grounds of the modern Jewish cemetery. This was established at the latest in the 18th century in the former bastion, a strip only five meters wide next to the Aula regia.

After the Nazi takeover, the Jewish cemetery was expropriated in 1935. All 25 gravestones were relocated to the Jewish cemetery in Ober-Ingelheim. During the redesign of the access to…
The wine-growing community of Schornsheim was first mentioned in 782 AD in a deed of gift from Charlemagne to the Hersfeld monastery. He donated his Schornsheim treasury, including the church and land, to "Saint Lioba" as a retirement home. She is one of the most important women of the Middle Ages. Although Lioba of Tauberbischofsheim only lived in Schornsheim for a few months until her death, she is still very much present here today. She stands as a bronze Benedictine abbess in the middle of the village square, surrounded by an artificial…
