The Catherine Church in Oppenheim is one of the most important Gothic churches between Strasbourg and Cologne! Source: rheinhessen.de/katharinenkirche/0
But it is also worth taking a look behind the Katharinenkirche.
There is an ossuary (charnel house) in the Michaelskapelle.
It is one of the largest and best preserved ossuaries in the world!

The Catherine Church is often referred to as the most important Gothic church building on the Rhine between Strasbourg and Cologne. Only the two west towers have survived from a large Romanesque predecessor building from the first decades of the 13th century. Work on the new Gothic building began around 1275 with the construction of the east choir. They continued to the west, from the transept with the crossing tower over the nave to the beginning of the Romanesque towers. This phase of construction was completed by about 1340.
