The Catholic Church of St. Katharina von Gau-Weinheim stands at the highest point on the northern edge of the village area. Today's church is essentially a Romanesque hall building that was redesigned and expanded in Baroque style in 1740. Between 1928 and 1930 the church was fundamentally rebuilt and expanded, giving it its current appearance.
The medieval church was dedicated to Saint Catherine and belonged to the archdeaconry of the provost of the Mainz monastery of St. Maria im Felde (St. Maria in campis).
