A piece of street art, which had been hanging in the "Zum Selzer Frosch" inn since the 1960s, can be found on a wall in Selzen. The image, in the historical context of the Thirty Years' War, depicts the town of Selzen along with seven of its neighboring communities. Selzen appears here as a frog, since the town's inhabitants are jokingly called frogs. The neighbors are portrayed with corresponding attributes, alluding to their nicknames: the Mommenheimers are called "Bollkuche" (a type of cake), the Köngernheimers "Staaklobber" (a type of squatter), the Hahnheimers "Bloomäuler" (a type of flower), the Schwabsburgers "Rotärsch" (a type of red-assed), the Friesenheimers "Kuckucke" (cuckoos) (although they are often also associated with the nicknames "Loko" and "Krakauer"), the Undenheimers "Windbeidel" (a type of windbag), and the Zornheimers "Knorrköbb" (a type of squatter).

In Selzen stands a replica of a Roman gravestone. The work by Nackenheim sculptor Rainer Knußmann is located in a square at the corner of Gaustraße and Kirschgartenstraße and was donated by three Selzen residents: Volker, his wife Annemarie, and his sister Helga Schätzel, who collected donations for it. The replica was unveiled on September 11, 2005.[1] The original gravestone is now in the State Museum of Mainz. It was discovered in 1935 during the regulation of the Selz River, west of the bridge at the Hahnheim-Selzen train station, along with other gravestones. Wagon marks on some of the stones suggest that they were reused to create a ford across the river. The stones are dated to the 1st and 2nd centuries AD.

A street art piece is being created on a wall in Selzen, reviving a mural that had hung in the "Zum Selzer Frosch" pub since the 1960s. After a year of planning and organization: The iconic and culturally significant mural from the "Zum Selzer Frosch" pub was recreated as street art on June 9, 2020, on Bürgermeister-Siegel-Straße. The year of preparation involved obtaining a suitable color photograph, researching the historical background, securing necessary permits, gaining supporters for the project, and finding an artist to execute the work. http://www.selzen.de/wandbild-2020.html

Castle Remains (side wing of the Renaissance building, marked 1604; quarry stone barn, 19th century; cellar with Prussian vaulted ceiling, probably around 1900;) - Simple Renaissance building with a freely reconstructed stair tower. Can only be viewed from the outside. The modest castle in Lörzweiler, altered by structural interventions, is one of the few remaining aristocratic residences in Rhenish Hesse. Description of the Building There is currently no reliable information about the castle's floor plan, and the few structural remains of the castle do not allow for an exact reconstruction of the property. Only a small side wing of the manor house, dating back to 1604, was spared from demolition in the 19th century. A freely reconstructed tower was built on the foundations of a stair tower that was demolished in the 19th century. A coat of arms stone bearing the date 1767 is now kept in the town hall, while a replica is located on the side wall of the town hall. History A noble family named after the place, Lörzweiler (Lorcewilre), has been documented as early as the 13th century. From the 15th century onward, the Hundt von Saulheim family also held property and rights in the village of Lörzweiler. Whether they were the builders of the castle cannot be definitively determined. The date of the castle's construction is also unknown. In 1762, Carolina Candida Theresia of the Hundt von Saulheim family bequeathed her property in Lörzweiler to her nephew, Philipp Adolf Freiherr von Hettersdorf. From 1772 to 1777, the castle's dining hall served the community for church services, as the parish church was in disrepair. The von Hettersdorf family, who were in the service of the Electorate of Mainz and lived primarily in Mainz, only occasionally used Lörzweiler Castle as a residence. In 1798, Philipp Adolf von Hettersdorf sold his property in Lörzweiler to the Mainz merchant Josef Kopps (d. 1823). Under his daughters, the castle grounds were divided into parcels and partially sold. In 1850, the municipality of Lörzweiler acquired part of the castle grounds to use as a cemetery. In the 19th century, the manor house was partially demolished, and the remains were converted to a new use as a barn. In 1907, the remains of the castle grounds, along with some buildings, were transferred to the municipality. The house at Schloss-Straße 30 serves as the town hall.
