Besides the thick oak tree, there is also a great wooden sculpture of a "plant woman", also known from the reverse of the German 50-pfennig coin.

The mountain church is the widely visible landmark of Waldböckelheim, built between 1863 and 1867.

Between Waldböckelheim and beyond Weinsheim, you can walk several kilometers parallel to the B41. The path is partly paved, but becomes gravel after the Sponheim junction. Coming from Waldböckelheim, you can, for example, turn right near Weinsheim/Warnamt and walk to the Heimberg Tower.

The Protestant church stands majestically high above Waldböckelheim, visible from afar.
