Kirchheimbolanden Old Town and Castle Gardens

Highlight • Historical Site

Kirchheimbolanden is the county seat of the Donnersberg district.
The core city is around four kilometers - as the crow flies - northeast of the Donnersberg.


The contiguous built-up area of the city shows considerable differences in height. The old town is at an altitude of 286 meters, ranging from 244 meters in Edenbornerstrasse to the built-up summit of the copper mountain at 373 meters. From the Kupferberg there is a distant view to the northeast, under good conditions the Frankfurt skyline and behind it the Kinzig valley near Hanau can be seen.

The town of Kirchheim was first mentioned in 774.
The city received its current name Kirchheimbolanden in the 19th century. A church of St. Remigius was mentioned as early as the 12th century. This church gave the place its name. Since the place was subordinate to the Lords of Bolanden, it later became Kirchheimbolanden.


The city is still called Kerchem today. The inhabitants are therefore also called Kerchemians. The city is abbreviated to Kibo.

The old town, Bahnhofstrasse, the castle and the Jewish cemetery are all designated as monument zones.
There are also numerous individual objects that are listed.

Anyone who rides the Zellertal cycle path from west to east will get the full benefit of a fairly decent gradient, especially on the first half of the way.
Those arriving by public transport can take the regional train to Kirchheimbolanden.

Pfrimm Valley Viaduct

Highlight • Monument

That was the former railway line from Mainz over Alzey to Kaiserslautern.
This route ends now in Kirchheimbolanden, because shortly before the end of WW2 the bridge near Marnheim was blown up by German soldiers. These are the remnants of it.

Directly at the monument you have a great view of the Zellertal including Donnersberg from the vantage point.

In 2019 and 2020, the Eisbach was renaturalized by the municipality of Ebertsheim. Since then, it has not only been a popular excursion destination, but interestingly also serves as flood protection. A small observation tower allows you to admire the whole thing from an elevated position.
