The Protestant St. Martin's Church is the landmark and, with its 60 meter high tower, also the tallest building in Grünstadt. The old Grünstadter Martinskirche appears in 1121 for the first time. In a document from 1212, Bishop Luitpold von Worms confirmed the rights to the Martinskirchen in Grünstadt and Mertesheim for the monastery of Glanders and allowed them to use their slopes for their own benefit.

The first St. Martin's Church was probably built before the year 1000. The St. Martin's Church was first mentioned in documents in 1121. In the 13th and 14th centuries, the Lorraine monastery of Glandern had ownership and patronage rights, and in the 16th century these passed to the Leiningen counts . After destruction in the Reunion Wars, the church was rebuilt and more impressive in 1727. The church, which burned down in 1942 during World War II, was completely rebuilt in 1960. To this day it houses the graves of the Old and Neuleiningen counts.
