In earlier years, this was an important railway station. It opened in 1896 with the Rodgau Railway. The Dreieich Railway was added in 1905. Today, the S-Bahn line "1" and a regional train line run here.

The impressive Catholic parish church of St. Nazarius was built in the neo-Gothic style between 1894 and 1896.

Especially in summer, it is very pleasant to relax here for a moment with a cool drink after visiting the swimming pool.

The so-called Gäulsgraben ran through this spot until the Mühlenrodau was filled in before World War II. The western part of the ditch lies somewhat lower than the Mühlenrodau (Plate 15). Therefore, it can be assumed that the Rodau flowed here even before human settlement and was only diverted via the Oberwiese in the Middle Ages to power the mills. As a result, the lower-lying original streambed became a swampy area, which probably did not have water year-round. https://roedermark.de/kultur-sport-freizeit/rundwege-durch-roedermark/rodaulehrpfad/station-21-gaeulsgraben/

The Willow Church, located on this site, is an ecumenical project of all five Christian congregations in Rödermark. As a meeting place for all denominations and a bridge between the city districts, the Willow Church is regularly used for various services and devotions between Pentecost and Thanksgiving. The project, which was inaugurated in 2007 during the Rödermark Festival celebrating the city's 30th anniversary, was initiated by Gudrun and Frithjof Decker. Since the 1980s, Christians have increasingly made praise and the preservation of creation their concern and held services outdoors. The branches of the willow trees enclose a place of worship, a space for reflection and worship in nature. From the very beginning, a location on the Rodau River was important. Water, as a symbol of life, is of central importance to the churches. https://roedermark.de/kultur-sport-freizeit/rundwege-durch-roedermark/rodaulehrpfad/station-16weidenkirche/
