The church is reminiscent of a fortified church and parts of the church are actually very old. There is a detailed information board on the cycle path about the well-known history of the place.

"The "Zimmerer Waldbrief" from 1389, the renewal of an undated donation protocol that was certainly a hundred years old at the time, reads like the founding document of a manorial private church: A rich nobleman named Eppo donated a wooden church to the parish of St. Martin in Zimmern, rich furnishings and the so-called Freier Leute Wald, which was to cover the future upkeep of the parish. Until the beginning of the 19th century, St. Martin remained the religious center of the three former villages of Zimmern, Urloffen and Rüchelnheim, which formed the parish."
