Peace Cross on Jakobsberg

Highlight • Monument

This viewpoint is located in the middle of the Jakobsberg near the Jakobsberg monastery. You have a wonderful panoramic view from up there and there is seating that invites you to linger.

Jacob's Ladder Sculpture

Highlight • Monument

Not only an interesting biblical place from the old testament and the escape of Jacob but also a great resting place

Jakobsberg Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

A great place and well maintained. A look into the small chapel or from the benches down into the valley and over to the other side of the Rhine is worth seeing. The small pond is also very beautiful

Ockenheim borders to the south on an elevation of a good 270 m. On the side facing Ockenheim, Blasius Caesar, who was the parish administrator at the time, laid the foundation stone for a chapel dedicated to the 14 Holy Helpers in 1720, which was to serve as a dwelling place for hermits. He
also initiated a pilgrimage from Ockenheim to the mountain - probably the pilgrimage practiced to this day near July 241, in which 3,000 people took part in 1749, Blasius Caesar wrote in the foreword of his pilgrimage booklet. This is how it is read in various chronicles of Ockenheim.

View of Laurenziberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this beautiful place you should definitely drive about 500 m to the monastery on the Laurenziberg! From there you have a fantastic view of the Rochusberg, the Nahe valley and the Rheingau.
