From the Ruhkreuz you can gaze far into the distance. You can see the Feldberg in the Taunus, the Frankfurt skyline, the Odenwald, the Donnersberg and the Hunsrück. The Rheinhessen flag also flies at this central vantage point.

The Rheinhessen flag also flies at this central vantage point. The Ruhkreuz was inaugurated on July 7th, 1918. The Catholic parish in Zornheim had it built. Some parishioners financed the project and the evangelical sculptor Stieb from Nieder-Olm made it. At the Ruhkreuz station was inserted in petition processions. A wayside cross must have stood on the site of the cross erected in 1918. The field name "Am Kreuz" for the vineyards to the south of the site is documented as early as the 18th century The vineyard location "An der Ruh" was decisive for the naming of the cross. This widespread field name describes a place on a path where loads could be set down on a stone for a short rest. Two stone blocks support a stone crossbeam, which is approximately at the level of the load carried on the back. Women from Hahnheim probably put their baskets here for a short rest when they went to the market in Mainz via Zornheim with their goods. There were such benches in many Rhenish-Hessian communities, often with a seat. Supposedly Napoleon donated these benches out of joy at the birth of his son; consequently one also speaks of "Napoleon's benches". The Ruhkreuz in Zornheim is an ideal starting point for hikes or to take a break and let your gaze wander. Source: zornheim.de/freizeit-kultur/sightseeing/ruhkreuz

The butterfly that was painted on the bunker to the right of the pyramid (when you stand in front of the stairs) comes from the exhibition "Alter Falter" (summer 2021) https://www.wald.rlp.de/de/wnz- Forsthaus-ober-olmer-wald/forest/art/

Here you can find information about Landskron Castle: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Landskron_(Oppenheim)

story Before Landskron Castle was built, there was probably a Salic or Hohenstaufen fortification on the same site, which was owned by King Henry V and destroyed in 1118 by troops of Archbishop Adalbert of Mainz. The castle itself was probably built in the early 13th century. The oldest surviving written mention of the "Reichsburg Oppenheim" comes from 1244. This castle was destroyed in 1257 and 1275 by the citizens of Oppenheim in a dispute with the Burgmannen over their privileges. However, Rudolf von Habsburg forced the citizens to rebuild the castle by 1281. In 1375 Emperor Charles IV pledged the castle to Ruprecht von der Pfalz. Accordingly, Ruprecht had the castle expanded. He was succeeded by his grandson Ruprecht III. as the owner of the castle, who also died there. In 1615, Elector Frederick V had the castle rebuilt like a palace. The castle burned down in the Thirty Years' War during the town fire in Oppenheim

The Oppenheim Toad Fountain was once used to supply the city of Oppenheim with water. However, the fountain has since been shut down. Today there is a nice, shady rest area here. Oppenheim is also famous for the vineyards at the Toad Fountain!
