The parish of Großsteinhausen, newly established in 1729, originally consisted of only two villages: the parish of Großsteinhausen and the neighboring community of Kleinsteinhausen. For this reason, it is also referred to as the "Steinhausen Parish." Only later was the parish expanded to include two additional villages and several farms and mills. Thus, during the French Revolution (1789-1799), Riedelberg, previously a branch of the Walschbronn parish, became part of the Großsteinhausen parish. In 1839, Bottenbach was also incorporated into the parish.

Saint Cyriacus is said to protect against frost and bad weather, which is why he soon became the patron saint of winegrowers throughout the wine-growing regions, especially in the Palatinate.
