The Benedictine monastery of Klingenmünster, known as "Clinga Monasterium," is the name of the town. It is probably the oldest of Germany's original monasteries, experiencing its heyday under the Salian and Hohenstaufen dynasties between the mid-9th and 13th centuries. Some remnants of the church building from 1100 are still preserved: the Romanesque westwork, the twin towers with spiral staircases, a late Romanesque gallery chapel, and the connection to the abbot's house. Remnants of paintings can only be found above the choir arch on the east wall (outline of a Virgin Mary with Child). A former southern transept (formerly with an apse) is now the sacristy of St. Michael's Church. The monastery complex was surrounded by a protective wall, and some wall remnants from the 13th century are still preserved. In 1996, the former monastery garden was replanted as a herb garden. St. Michael's Church was built in 1738 on the foundations of the former Benedictine abbey. (https://www.pfalz.de/de/kloster-st-michael-in-klingenmuenster)

Resting Stones and Napoleon Benches Written by Alexander Klein (www.rittersteineundmehr.de) In many places in the Palatinate, Hesse, Baden-Württemberg, and Alsace, you can often find these somewhat dated sandstone benches. They stand along roads or paths, on former postal routes, on mountain passes, by streams, by lakes, in clearings, under trees, at high crosses, etc. These are "seating and storage furniture" designed to rest a load carried on the head or back on the higher surfaces (lintel or widened capital), and to rest on the bench next to or underneath it. Most often, it was women (e.g., market women, farmers' wives, maids, etc.) who carried firewood, crops, butter, hay, manure, etc. in baskets on their heads and thus covered long distances. The benches erected between the 18th and 19th centuries were popular resting places. They are colloquially known as Napoleon benches, butter benches, resting stones, or post benches. /www.heimat-pfalz.de/pfalz-geschichte/geschichte/835-ruhesteine-und-napoleonsbaenke.html

Nice and shady and cool even when the sun is shining.

A beautiful bike path, definitely. But when the weather's nice, there are lots of dog walkers and cyclists.

The café was unfortunately closed at the end of April 2025 https://www.cafe-nostalgie.com/

Rheinzabern - the center of the world. I'm already gone....

There is almost no traffic here on Sundays. The road surface is very smooth.
