Historic Old Town of Freinsheim

Highlight • Historical Site

Freinsheim enchants with its beautiful old town, which invites you to stroll and linger. Everywhere there are cozy restaurants and wine taverns, some in idyllic backyards, where you can stop off well and taste a regional Riesling, for example.

Haintor City Gate

Highlight • Monument

"Until the 19th century, Freinsheim had two entrances, the Eisentor in the north-east of the city and the Haintor in the south-west. The name Haintor probably comes from its orientation towards a small chestnut grove in front of the gates of Freinsheim. The gate system originally built also included a front gate with a kennel and two towers, which were demolished in the 19th century due to dilapidation.The tower is 15 m high and had one more storey before the Palatinate War of Succession.A drop gate, which is not today functional and only attached for decoration, was in earlier times an important component to protect the residents at night and from possible attacks The gates were already closed. The phrase is still known to us today from this event, but it is more in the sense of fear, not quite to get to know the desired partner in good time. If you leave the city through the Haintor in a westerly direction, you have a view of the Bismarck Tower and the almost 500 m high Peterskopf in the Palatinate Forest. Not far from there is the "Lindemannsruh", a tourist restaurant that was named after the former head forester Lindemann. We owe it to him that the chestnuts that the Romans brought to this region are still in such large numbers."

Iron Gate, Freinsheim

Highlight • Historical Site

The Iron Gate's inner gate was a special security mechanism in case the enemy had already entered through the mighty, outer gate. Then they threw stones or shot at him from above (from a bay window).
"In a stone niche [on the inside] a headless statue of Peter has found its place. In the case of the people of Freinsheim, on the other hand, the story of an innocently decapitated woman, the 'headless virgin', persists."

Zellertal Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The idea of building the "Zellertal Memorial" was born soon after the First World War and the memorial was officially inaugurated on July 15, 1928. It is dedicated to "the Palatinate and Hessian fallen soldiers as they fought and died together in enemy territory".

Each of the 6 pillars of the pillared hall stands for a Zellertal community: Einselthum, Harxheim, Niefernheim, Zell, Mölsheim and Wachenheim. Due to its special location, its openwork, upward-pointing shape and its height of 15 meters and a diameter of 6.5 meters, it still has a special long-distance effect.

Every year on the “Memorial Day” in November, citizens of all Zellertal communities meet for a joint commemoration ceremony for those who died in the two world wars.

View of Donnersberg from the Road Between Ramsen and Göllheim

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Actually, the route is very nice to drive from both directions. My highlight, however, is driving from Ramsen in the direction of Göllheim. If you get the right day of the week, you can stop at the Göllheimer Häuschen about halfway along the route and take a break. At the fork in the route, you can either drive straight down to Kerzenheim via Rosenthal Monastery or stay on the road and continue to Göllheim and get another great panoramic view of the Donnersberg.
