The crossing of the Rhine at Nierstein in 1945 by American troops was a key operation on the Western Front in the final phase of World War II. Starting from Nierstein, 18 km south of Mainz in what is now Rhineland-Palatinate, several hundred American infantrymen crossed the Rhine into southern Hesse and built bridges, which were then used to transport 60,000 vehicles for the further occupation of the German Reich. The operation went down in military history as the “Nierstein Crossing – Silent Crossing” because it took place…
In memory of the last "Ausscheller" in the municipality, a sculpture was erected in 2011, which is supposed to represent the former municipal servant and Ausscheller for public announcements - Mr. Karl Ritzinger.

The 2.5 m high menhir likely dates from the Neolithic period (approx. 400 to 1700 BC). The menhir was discovered in 1927 during clearing work on the southeast slope of a rise near Dittelsheim-Heßloch at a depth of 80 cm and was re-erected 100 m away. It had probably been buried here in the late Middle Ages, but its name had persisted as a place name. Whether it originally served as a boundary stone, like many other menhirs, is unclear. It has a height of 210 cm, a width of 145 cm, and a depth of 80 cm.
From the salt works to the spa garden Spa Park and Thermal Brine Bath Bad Münster am Stein "I stood at the great water wheel/ immersed in deep rest/ receiving the cool drops of water/ and watched the swing. The rocks were reaching for the sky, I knew it far and near, but I enjoyed it so much that I only looked at the wheel", was the enthusiastic poem by Gustav Pfarrius, the "Singer of the Nahe Valley", in his collection of songs "Nahetal in Liedern" (Nahe Valley in Songs) in 1838. The scenery he describes in the poem Salinental can also…
The St. Remigius Church is one of the earliest Merovingian church foundations on the Middle Rhine. Its documentary evidence dates back to the year 741.

The 23-meter-long stone building was erected on an existing Merovingian burial ground and initially served as a cemetery church for the nearby settlement. The discovery of a rare early medieval baptismal font in the church tower suggests that the church received the status of a…
