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).

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
