Idstein's old town is always worth a visit.

Many of you probably know the Gimbach estate primarily as a popular destination for day trips, complete with a fantastic playground, a tractor for climbing, horses, paddocks, and orchards. But the Gimbach estate is much more than that. It's a historically significant site in Kelkheim, likely the location of the first church in what is now the town of Kelkheim. The name Gimbach comes from the word "Gyn," derived from the male name "Ginno." The Gynnenbach stream, which originates in the Johannesborn spring about 400 meters south of the Gimbach estate, was first documented in 1287 in connection with a chapel dedicated to St. John. Since the "Roteldisstein," a 7th-century gravestone, was discovered at this location in 1868—600 years later—it is believed that a church building with a churchyard existed there as early as the Merovingian period. It was likely an early medieval baptismal church dedicated to John the Baptist.

There's a lovely square here with a fountain and benches to relax on. Several restaurants are nearby.

What an old town, such beautiful houses.

Here on the ridge there is a beautiful cycle path, which is great to ride and where you have a truly magnificent view

The approximately 42-meter-high Witches' Tower is the landmark of the town of Idstein and a real eye-catcher. Originally built as a butter churn tower, it served as the keep of the medieval Idstein Castle. Today, it attracts visitors with its striking silhouette and fascinating history—including dark legends from the time of the witch hunts.
