Grape traffic circle - Asselheim/Grünstadt 🚴♂️
Highlight • Monument
The Asselheim thoroughfare is circling again as we drive past...
The symbolic traffic roundabout is located on Weinstraße and points to the town's importance for winemaking. The first thing that catches the eye about this symbolic art is a large, wooden A. This is meant to symbolize the town of Asselheim itself. Hanging from this A is a metal grape, representing Asselheim as a wine-growing region. Only at second glance is it apparent that water is dripping over this grape. This process symbolizes how wine is made from the grapes. Red wine, in particular, is produced in large quantities in Asselheim, as the area around the town is often referred to as the Tuscany of Germany. For this reason, predominantly southern-style plants and two trees were planted among the greenery. 🚴♂️

Evangelical Church Asselheim (Elizabeth Church)
Highlight • Religious Site
The church is only open for services.
The St. Elisabeth Church was built around 1300. First as a chapel in honor of Saint Elisabeth of Thuringia shortly after her canonization. In 1496 the chapel was raised to the status of a church. The former defense tower, part of the local fortifications, was converted into a church tower. During the Second World War the church was hit by bombs and burned down to the ground. The reconstruction took place in the years 1949/50.

Story:
Due to inheritance disputes between the Counts of Leiningen, the time around 1460 can be regarded as uncertain. It is assumed that the citizens of Asselheim preferred to visit the St. Elisabeth Chapel in the village than the parish church of St. Stephen far away in the field. In 1496 the St. Elisabeth chapel was raised to the status of a church, and the Wart or Roman tower was converted into a church tower. It consists largely of the rust-brown Capuchin stones found in the surrounding area. The first Protestant pastor held the first service in 1560. In 1841 the big bell burst, in 1864 this misfortune repeated itself. During the Second World War, the church was hit by incendiary bombs and burned down to the foundations.
The reconstruction took place in the years 1949/50. The ringing, renewed in 1951, can still be heard today. On Sunday, August 18, 1996, the citizens of Asselheim celebrated the 500th anniversary of their church and the elevation of the chapel to a church with a festive service.
The Gothic church key from the time it was built has been in the collection of the Grünstadt Museum since 1906.

Elephant and Ploughman Statue, Enkenbach-Alsenborn
Highlight • Monument
The elephant traveled from China to Enkenbach-Alsenborn
The elephant has come a long way. From far away Shanghai, the 15-ton colossus came to Germany in the municipality of Enkenbach-Alsenborn. The elephant was at sea for a full 5 weeks before it set foot on European soil for the first time in Antwerp. From there he traveled to the Rhine port in Ludwigshafen. With the weight, which is still only about half that of the original elephant, large equipment was required for loading. An 80 ton mobile crane was needed to load the elephant from its container onto the base of the roundabout. The base had to be covered with concrete beforehand, on which the elephant was attached. The spectacle took place under the observation of numerous spectators.
The dimensions are impressive for a human, although not quite the same as a real elephant. The elephant is 2.5 meters high and about 3 meters long. In the original dimensions, the elephant would probably have been less easy to transport and the sight would have been too impressive on the roundabout.
