At this location, there is a well shaft that was situated beneath an asphalt surface until 2012. As part of the urban renovation, the Saalbrunnen has once again become a component of the local landscape. Today, travertine blocks mark its location. The location of the Saalbrunnen is particularly interesting: It is precisely at the intersection of the longitudinal and transverse axes of the Carolingian core buildings. Thus, the location of the Saalbrunnen marked the center of the palatial complex around the year 800. The symmetrical…
One of the oldest stone bridges in Germany, with bridge chapel. Bridges have a long tradition in the Nahe estuary. The first one was built in the decade before Chriti's birth. At that time Drusus fortified the left Rhine border of the Roman Empire by building fortifications and had a wooden bridge built over the Nache. After its destruction in 70 AD, the first stone bridge followed, which fell victim to the Normans around 891. Archbishop Willigis built a new stone bridge over the Nahe a good hundred years later. In this bridge, a small early…

Also worth seeing is the Wamboldscher Hof, a stately home in the middle of the village, built around 1770 in the Baroque style. The wide gateway with pilasters and the mansard roof are particularly striking. After the French Revolution, this stately building served as a schoolhouse until 1963 and is now the parsonage of the Protestant parish of Partenheim. Visits: By prior arrangement
The mediaeval cemetery »Judensand« on Mombacher Strasse has largely been preserved. However, expulsions of the Jews repeatedly led to evictions and remodeling of the "Eternal Place" and thus to serious losses of gravestones. Since the 1860s, important Jewish gravestones have repeatedly come to light during construction work in Mainz. Outstanding gravestones were combined in 1926 by the rabbis Levi and Salfeld to form a memorial cemetery in order to make the heritage visible from afar and to underline our own location in Magenza…
Great artists in the red wine city Andy Warhol, Chagall, Miró, Picasso, Rembrandt, Dürer, Goya and Paul Klee - to name just a few - have already found their way to Ingelheim. The old town hall in Nieder-Ingelheim, right next to the museum near the Kaiserpfalz, has served as a barrier-free location for world-class art enjoyment since 1986. Boehringer Ingelheim is partly responsible for this. Thanks to the pharmaceutical company's great commitment to the arts, the "International Days" have been held here for more than 60 years.…
