Elsheim Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Before you get to the 11000 Mägdemühle, you have to cross a small bridge over the Selz. I stop briefly each time.

Ruins of the Eleven-Thousand Maidens Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The Elftausend-Mägde-Turm (Tower of the Eleven Thousand Maidens) is located on the western outskirts of Stadecken-Elsheim, at the crossing of the old Mainz-Kreuznach road over the Selzbach.

It was built in the 14th century and served as a customs station in the Middle Ages on the road from Mainz to Kreuznach. Every traveler had to cross the Selz there. The tower is the remnant of a fortified gatehouse with two round corner towers.

Saint Ursula is said to have used the road with her 11,000 virgins on her way to Cologne – hence the name Elftausend-Mägde-Turm.

Fiori di Gelato Ice cream parlor Stadecken-Elsheim

Highlight • Cafe

The ice cream here tasted truly exceptionally delicious. However, a scoop of ice cream costs €2, and a sundae costs almost €10.
