The town hall in Bodenheim is a typical example of the Franconian-Hessian half-timbered construction style of the Renaissance around 1600 and is considered one of the most beautiful half-timbered houses in Rheinhessen.
The renovation was completed in 2023; it now shines in new splendour in the old town centre of the wine-growing community of Bodenheim. It was built in 1608 under the then lord of the village, Provost Anton Walpot von Bassenheim, as a new courthouse for the Mainz Knights' Abbey of St Alban.
In the bay window, we recognise the so-called "Albansgulden" carved in wood in the parapet field, which was adopted in today's town coat of arms. It is still the seat of the local administration of Bodenheim today.
