According to legend, Saint Ursula of Cologne and her entourage of 11,000 virgins found shelter for the night while crossing the stream in Elsheim on the way back from her pilgrimage to Rome.

Imagine the 14th century. Just here was a customs post with two round corner towers and a bridge. In addition, there is a legend of 11,000 virgins on a pilgrimage who are said to have found quarters here.

The Eleven Thousand Maids Tower on the western outskirts of Stadecken-Elsheim is the ruins of a fortified gatehouse with two round corner towers. The complex with a bridge serving as a customs station was built in the 14th century at the point where the road from Mainz to Kreuznach crossed the Selz.
According to legend, Saint Ursula of Cologne and her entourage of 11,000 virgins are said to have found accommodation for the night by crossing the stream in Elsheim on the way back from their pilgrimage to Rome.
