Only a part of the entrance of the former Lutheran church building is still visible. The sandstone plaque above refers to the year of construction 1753. After both the Catholic and Reformed congregations had their own new houses of worship, the six resident Lutheran families joined forces with fellow believers from the Kurmainz Rheingau across the Rhine. With the help of a collection, a modest small church was built and used jointly. As the only church in Frei-Weinheim, it did not have a bell. The Lutherans were assigned to Ober-Ingelheim. After a severe ice flow, the building was already in very poor condition by 1784. The merging of the Reformed and Lutherans into the Evangelical-Christian denomination in 1822 meant the final abandonment of the church.

In 1837, the later mayor Nikolaus Schaurer, incorporating old building materials, erected a two-story residential building. His initials "N Sch" with the year can still be seen above the door frame today. His son opened the traditional inn "Zur Pfalz" here.
