    The last organ to be built by the Stumm family of organ builders from Sulzbach stands in the evangelical church in Niederhosenbach, from 1896. The oldest part of the church is the baptistery from the 13th century.
    Niederhosenbach is on the Celtic-Roman Sirona hiking trail and the Hildegard pilgrimage trail.
    In Niederhosenbach, in cooperation with the local community, a Hildebrechts home path and the germ cell "Faith" (one of the stations on this path to pause) is created on the church grounds.
    Since Hildebrecht von Hosenbach was the father of the famous Hildegard von Bingen, historians now assume that she was born in Niederhosenbach.
    Also worth mentioning are the stained glass choir windows from 1964/65 by the artist Helmut Uhrig, which are the themes of the individual windows:
    Right window: Paul and Peter from Damascus to Rome (scenes from Acts)
    Left window: baptism, mission to the Gentiles and Pentecost
    Center window: The Apostles' Creed.
    There is also a facsimile of the Liber SCIVIAS, the Hildegard von Bingen, in the church, which was donated by the former pastor of the parish Wilhelm Gervers and is kept visible under glass.
    And in front of the church, surrounded by a comfortable bench, the Luther lime tree, which was planted for Martin Luther's 400th birthday on November 10, 1883 and under which many festivals have already been celebrated.
