Fischbach is one of six districts of Kelkheim (Taunus) in the Main-Taunus district in southern Hesse and belongs to the Vordertaunus landscape . Fischbach is a middle-class residential district and has about 5,700 inhabitants.
geography
location
The place is in the valley of the river of the same name in the Voraunus . Neighbors are the Kelkheim districts of Hornau in the east, Kelkheim-Mitte in the southeast and Ruppertshain in the northwest and the cities of Hofheim and Eppstein in the west.
The eponymous brook rises below Ruppertshain, flows through Fischbach and the narrow Fischbachtal until it flows into the Schwarzbach in Eppstein . Before that, however, the Rettershofer Bach, the Kickelbach and the Pfuhlbach flow into the Fischbach. Fischbach is also at the foot of three Taunus mountains, the Fischbacher Kopf, the Staufen and the Rossert .
Despite the idyllic natural spatial position Fischbach is primarily a residential suburb in the vicinity of Frankfurt . While the three districts of Kelkheim, Münster , Kelkheim and Hornau, have grown together completely, there are still around 200 meters of undeveloped area between Fischbach and Hornau and Kelkheim, which are designated in the land use plan as a so-called " regional green corridor " and are protected from development.
traffic
The federal highway 455 leads from Königstein via Fischbach to Eppstein and Wiesbaden . The former thoroughfare was replaced by a bypass road at the beginning of the 1980s , which Fischbach does not bypass , but runs through on a dam that was built up in the (largely destroyed) Fischbachaue. The center of the village on Langstrasse is crossed by a bridge. The connection to Kelkheim-Mitte and further to downtown Frankfurt is a state road . Three bus lines of the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund connect Fischbach with the outside world, especially the train station of the Königsteiner Bahn in Kelkheim.
Outline of the place
The old town center lies at the intersection of the two main roads Kelkheim – Ruppertshain and Königstein – Eppstein. The former forms the main street of the village in the area of the old village, the long street, from which short streets branch off on both sides. Through the course of the Fischbach and a ditch (the Haingraben road reminds of it) at the inner edge of which ran a thick hedge, the place was easily protected from unwelcome visitors. There were also two watchtowers and gates, which were first mentioned in 1348. The lower tower was roughly where the Hanseklingerbrunnen now stands (Langstrasse, corner of Kirchgasse). The upper tower was not far from Langstrasse at the corner of Eppsteiner Strasse. The upper tower was sold in 1818 and demolished that same year.
In the 19th century, Fischbach grew along the country roads, especially on Kelkheimer and Eppsteiner Straße.
After the Second World War , Fischbach grew due to the settlement of expellees , street names such as Egerländer Strasse and Königsberger Strasse are reminiscent of the old home of the new Fischbachers. Their residential areas emerged, similar to the large single-family house areas that followed since the 1960s, mainly on both sides of Kelkheimer Strasse in the south of the village, around Staufenstrasse and Sodener Strasse. In the north there was only a residential area on the site of a former brickworks , which the street An der Ziegelei is reminiscent of today . In 1905 the brickworks was built due to brisk construction activity. In 1920 the company was sold for the first time and changed hands many times until it closed in the late 1950s.
history
Administrative history
The Fischbach district was demonstrably inhabited since the 18th and 13th centuries. Century BC The barrows in the Fischbacher Halbehl indicate this. According to the Celts , the Germanic Mattiakers probably lived in this area . They should later be absorbed by the Rhine Franconia . The Romans began to build the Upper German Limes between 107 and 115 AD after the Varus Battle . Fischbach lies south of the Limes and was therefore under Roman control at that time as part of the Civitas Mattiacorum or Civitas Taunensium (depending on whether the Schwarzbach or the Nidda is regarded as the border between the two areas) in the Roman province of Germania superior . Even after the invasion of the Alemanni 260 n. Chr. Persisted this administrative unit. After the conquest by the Franks in the 6th – 7th centuries In the 17th century AD, the area became the property of the Frankish kings. In the course of this Frankish conquest, villages and towns were able to establish themselves.
Fischbach is, like many other places in the area, a Franconian ( Carolingian ) foundation. The document containing the first mention of Fischbach was dated to 780. The pious Mrs. Imma , presumably a daughter of Charlemagne and wife of his biographer Einhard , donates her goods and the people belonging to them in Fischbach to the Fulda monastery . Imperial rights also appear in the 8th and 9th centuries. In 813 the place is owned by Count Liutfried as a royal fief . From 890 Fischbach is part of the county of Uualahes and belongs to the Niddagau in the early and high Middle Ages .
In 1348 the lords of Eppstein appear as rulers, who apparently had the place as a fief from the Mainz cathedral monastery. In 1505 Fischbach became part of the newly founded County of Königstein . In 1535 the Counts of Stolberg inherited the Eppsteinian property and in 1581 Kurmainz again took over the Stolbergian inheritance. The county became the Oberamt Königstein , Fischbach was part of the Eppstein District Bailiwick . In 1781 the Oberamt Königstein came to Oberamt Höchst . In 1803 the place was first transferred to Nassau-Usingen and in 1806 to the Duchy of Nassau . In 1811, Fischbach and the dissolved Eppstein District Bailiwick were transferred to the Königstein Office .
Nassau was annexed by Prussia in 1866 after the lost Austro-Prussian war and demoted to the Wiesbaden administrative district of the Prussian province of Hessen-Nassau , which was divided into the provinces of Kurhessen and Nassau in 1944 . With the latter, Fischbach came to today's state of Hesse in 1945 . Since its incorporation into Prussia, Fischbach belonged to the Obertaunuskreis (district town: Bad Homburg vor der Höhe ) until 1918 after the offices of Königstein, Usingen and Homburg were combined.
Between 1918 and 1928, the place was part of the Königstein district due to the French occupation of the Mainz bridgehead . In 1928 the village came to the newly established Main-Taunus-Kreis (administrative seat: Frankfurt-Höchst , since 1980: Hofheim am Taunus ).
On January 1, 1977, Fischbach was merged with the former municipality of Rossert ( Ruppertshain and Eppenhain ) and the city of Kelkheim to form the new city of Kelkheim as part of the regional reform in Hesse .
Economic and social history
Like many other localities, Fischbach has not been spared from wars and diseases in the course of its history. There is historical evidence of a plague epidemic in 1666. In 1672, the remaining inhabitants flee to Kronberg from Kurbrandenburg troops during the Dutch War .
The economy of the place was based for centuries on agriculture and fruit growing (the orchards typical of the Vordertaunus ), since the beginning of the 19th century it was the location of numerous carpenters. In contrast to Kelkheim, the furniture industry, which used to be important in Fischbach, has not survived to this day. The clayey soil also made it possible for brick factories to settle here.
The industry, especially the former Farbwerke in Frankfurt-Höchst , today the Höchst industrial park , has offered the Fischbachers a source of income since the late 19th century . The opening of the Königsteiner Bahn in 1902 significantly improved the connection to Frankfurt-Höchst; previously, many Fischbach workers walked every morning to the train station in Soden .
At the end of the Second World War, Fischbach had around 1,000 inhabitants. The settlement of displaced people , especially from the Sudetenland , almost doubled this number after the end of the war. The suburbanization of the 1960s and 1970s meant an even bigger surge in growth , when Fischbach changed from a Taunus village to a suburban Frankfurt residential community: the population rose to almost 6,000 by the early 1980s and has hardly changed since then.
As a result of the strong immigration, both the denomination (previously mostly Catholics ) and the social structure of the population changed: in addition to the long-established village population, mostly craftsmen and some remaining farmers, there was an academic middle class, mostly employees of the nearby industrial park Maximum.
politics
coat of arms
The coat of arms has its origin in a court seal, which was created before 1581 and has been documented since 1612. The "talking" place symbol combines a stream with fish and red rafters . The rafters are the symbol of the Lords of Eppstein. This original coat of arms was adapted with the transition of the place to Kurmainz. In a second court seal - whose seal stamp has been preserved - the rafters on the right side of the coat of arms were replaced by the Mainz coat of arms and additionally filled with two flowers. With the transition of the place to Nassau in 1816, the Mainz wheel disappeared from the place name and returned to its original form.
Attractions
Holy Trinity Church
The Fischbach village church, consecrated to the Holy Trinity , replaced the previous building from 1686 in 1781. A parish has been occupied since 1328. In 1778 Pastor Konrad Anderetsch turned to the archiepiscopal authority in Mainz with an urgent request for "repair and expansion" of the old church. This resulted in the calculations of the church slope to Fischbach from the years 1781 to 1787. These calculations were made by the church builder Johann Wittekind. Mayor Leicher and the Eppsteiner Amtskeller Wentzel were also involved in the organization.
The old church was probably demolished in 1780 and its structural remains, if they could not be reused, were auctioned off. So the old altar and the communicant bench went to the church in Vockenhausen . Except for a few remains of the wall of the old sacristy behind today's main altar, nothing was left of the previous building from 1686.
Materials from the surrounding area were brought in for the construction. The stones came from Oberjosbach and Vockenhausen and sand from Schneidhain. Oberliederbacher, Niederhofheimer, Sossenheimer and Zeilsheimer brought wood from Höchst. These logs from Höchst allow the assumption that a large part of the wood used in the church came from Franconia on rafts down the Main. In addition, wood came from Bremthal, Ehlhalten, Schneidhain, Niederjosbach, Wildsachsen, Langenhain, and Schlossborn. Lime was supplied from Niederjosbach, Kelkheim and Massenheim.
Originally, a stone tower was planned on the west side of the church, which was not built. Instead, today's wooden roof turret was built with the hood. The total cost of the construction was around 10,000 guilders - for comparison: a day laborer earned around 8 guilders per month in the Höchst porcelain factory in 1766, a paint manufacturer 20 guilders.
On Corpus Christi, June 14th 1781, the completion of the building shell was probably celebrated. When the church was consecrated, it is not clear from the church accounts.
The craftsmen involved in the construction of the church in 1781 were:
- Wall work: Peter Hackel, Eppstein
- Carpentry work: Conrad Sauer, Eppstein
- Locksmith work: Meister Alter, Königstein
- Roofing work: Georg Becker, Königstein
- White binding work: Master Usinger, Oberursel.
- Carpentry work: Leonhard Fischer from Eppstein + Johann Friedrich Ohlenschläger, Fischbach
- Glass work: Adam Grosch, Eppstein
- Interior design: master carpenter Peter Adam, Eddersheim and sculptor Sebastian Pfaff, Mainz
- Organ maker: Mahr, Wiesbaden - supplied by Hofmann Engel, Bierstadt
- Master locksmith: Johann Caspar Zons, Königstein
- Reliquary settings: Maria Anna Pleines, Fischbach
- Master blacksmith: Wendel Wittenkind, Fischbach
- Nail smith: Philipp Mar
- Gilder: Johann Willhelm Fridinger, Mainz
- Sailing work: Carl Sauer, Frankfurt.
- Plumber work: Peter Roos, Ruppertshain
The church has some fittings from the 18th century and offers an impressive sight from the neighboring, lower-lying Fischbachaue. The crucifixion group in the choir was created in 1719 by Cornelius Andreas Donett for the former Capuchin Church in Frankfurt am Main. The organ was completely redesigned in 1964 by the Klais company in Bonn. The sculptures of an Immakulata, a St. Matthew, a St. Wendelin, a St. Nepomuk, as well as a trinity relief, in the interior of the church date from the 18th century. In the side chapel is the Roteldisstein , a Christian tombstone from the 7th century from the Gimbach churchyard. The stone is an indication of the early Christianization of the Taunus area. In addition, in the side chapel there is a glass painting of St. Anthony , created at the end of the 14th century, as well as a picture of the Trinity from 1717, which also comes from the Gimbach pilgrimage chapel. The town's cemetery was located by the church until 1826 and was then moved to the Reiskirch. The Reiskirch was probably the name of a field chapel on today's Kelkheimer Straße. In 1839, however, the location was given up again and relocated to its current location in the north of Fischbach.

Church of St. John
As everywhere in the former Electoral Mainz area, the Fischbach population is traditionally Catholic. Due to the large number of Protestant immigrants since the end of the war, the demand for a Protestant church grew: the Fischbach Protestants had to attend the church service in the talk church in Eppstein . In the 1950s, pastor Udo Weishaupt founded his own congregation, named after John the Baptist and given a church on Paradiesweg in 1958. The church is in the typical modern style and has large, colorful glass windows.
Rettershof
The Rettershof , north east of Fischbach on the edge, was created in 1146 as a convent of the Premonstratensians .
In the course of the Reformation , the sovereign had the monastery closed in 1559 and converted into an estate. In 1884 the estate was privatized and the new owner, an Englishman, had a new manor house built in the Tudor style. His successors founded an excursion restaurant in 1938, in which the products of the farm were offered. The Rettershof was bought and renovated by the city of Kelkheim in 1980.
Today, the Rettershof essentially consists of three parts: the historically designed four-sided courtyard of the actual estate, the former manor house to the west of it and the excursion restaurant to the east. There is also a riding arena in the south.
In the 1970s, the manor house briefly housed the European headquarters of the Hare Krishna sect and today, after adding an extension with 35 rooms, it houses an upper-priced castle hotel.
Fischbacher Halbehl
Not far from the Rettershof is the Halbehl forest within the Fischbacher district. There, with around 50 burial mounds from the Bronze Age, is the largest grave field of this type in the Main-Taunus district. The burial mounds were once real structures with a surrounding wall that supported the mound. Today the graves have a diameter of 5 to 24 meters and a height of up to 2.60 meters. The dead were mostly arable farmers and cattle breeders who probably settled near the grave fields. In the middle of the 19th century, two of the Gagern brothers and the Nassau antiquity association examined the graves. Little is known about the finds. Most of the burial mounds were empty. The only datable finds come from the 18th – 13th centuries. Century BC Chr.
Gimbacher Hof
Although the Hofgut Gimbach is approached from Kelkheim-Mitte today and is located on the edge of the residential development there, it belongs to the Fischbacher district. The almost kilometer long path from Fischbach to Gimbacher Hof is only usable for pedestrians and cyclists and leads through a nature reserve (Förstergrund / Barthelsteiner Grund) with orchards. Today the Hofgut operates horse breeding, an apple wine press , a campsite and still a restaurant with a beer garden, which is especially popular with young people and families in the wide area. Today's house with dining room has existed since 1764 and is called Hof Gimbach .
The name goes back to a brook that arises near the Gimbacher Hof in a spring meadow. First mentioned in 1287 as "Gynnenbach". The part of the name 'Gyn' or 'Gim' refers to the male name Ginno. In the same year a chapel and cemetery are also mentioned. The Roteldisstein found there in 1868 dates from the 7th century and suggests that there was already a clerical complex at the time of the Merovingians . It was dedicated to John the Baptist. It is obvious to see it as an early medieval baptistery. The baptismal water was taken from nearby Johannesborn, a spring meadow in the forest. The stately Hof Gimbach was first mentioned in 1534 in the possession of the Lords of Eppstein-Königstein . An archaeological excavation in 2011 determined the exact location of the former pilgrimage chapel. Further remains of the foundation wall suggest a square half-timbered building that was located next to the chapel. Found ceramic and glass fragments can be dated to the 14th - 16th centuries. The chaplains of Gimbach, who are mentioned in documents as the caretakers of the chapel from 1300 to 1538, probably lived here.
In 1708/09 the Eppsteiner Amtskeller Johann Jakob Lipp built a new pilgrimage chapel in place of the old Johannes chapel. At that time, the Elector of Mainz, Lothar Franz von Schönborn , obtained from Pope Clemens XI. a complete indulgence of sins for all Gimbach pilgrims for the day of the Holy Trinity (Sunday after Pentecost). To this end, he established a brotherhood of hermits there. The hermitage was already used before 1716 to provide special care for the pilgrims and the assembly of the hermits of the archdiocese at their annual meetings. The chapel was built from field stones and Taunus rock, the windows and doors had sandstone walls. The roof, covered with slate, was crowned by a ridge turret. According to records from 1813, the size of the chapel was "a small branch church", about 16 meters long and 8.70 meters wide. The furnishings included three altars, a movable pulpit, five movable confessionals, old church pews and several old pictures. A men’s gallery provided more space. The centerpiece was the image of grace, newly donated in 1717, which shows the acceptance of Mary into heaven by the Holy Trinity.
A restaurant for pilgrims has existed since 1731, when Johann Jakob Schmitt from the Kurmainzisches Keller in Eppstein acquired the right to run a wine tavern on the pilgrimage days. The large number of pilgrims made it necessary to build a communicant house in 1755. According to tradition, several hundred people visited the pilgrimage site on some days, which quickly led to problems. So many came to Gimbach not because of the pilgrimage, but because of the inn. In 1769, for example, Pastor Johannes Conrad Anderetsch wrote to the Vicariate General in Mainz: "Within 20 years of my being here, I have not seen a church consecration day in Gimbach where there have not been fights. There is only one farmer who lives there who, to increase the risk of wine, beer and Pours brandy. "
In 1810, Pastor Franz von Schwarz asked the Nassau state government to cancel the pilgrimage: "It will be absolutely necessary to forbid the landlord Schmitt to tap. That would be the only way to render the pilgrimage harmless if you don't want it to be good to move to Fischbach and demolish the church in Gimbach. "
Also Dechant Franz Jacob Brant, who later became the first bishop of Limburg, recommended in 1818 in a letter the resolution of the pilgrimage and their transfer to Fischbach: " In the chapel there is a courtyard house The owner leadeth economy for the Wall propelled Since the restaurant very much.. is cramped, so the rooms, barn, attic of this inn are often filled with guests, especially in rainy weather, who often take the drink, as eyewitnesses assure me. "
Pastor Franz Joseph Spieß wrote on August 18, 1818: " Every inn has and keeps its faults. The depraved youth of Kelkheim did not go to Gimbach because of the chapel, but because of the inn, and this will not stop. "
In 1811 the hermits left Gimbach and in 1828 the pilgrimage was finally banned. On June 11, 1830, the Gimbach Altar was brought to the parish church in Fischbach. The Gimbach pilgrimage leads there to this day. The Johanneskapelle was demolished in November 1830. The Ermitage buildings were laid down in 1821.
Hanseklinger fountain
The bronze fountain on Langstrasse in the town center was created in 1987 by the Kelkheim sculptor Johannes Norbert Klarmann at the suggestion of the 1st chairman of the Fischbach association . It represents a journeyman craftsman who with his hand catches and drinks water that flows out of the Fischbach coat of arms.
The origin of the name Hanseklinger has not been clearly established for the old Fischbachers. There are different versions of where the name comes from. The most widespread explanation refers to the numerous carpenters in the furniture village who had their handsaws ( Hansee ) sharpened (made to sound ) by the local farmers . Another version could come from singing pilgrims to the Johanneskapelle (Gimbacher Hof) ("Johannesklinger"). Another explanation: carpenters used the scraper, it was operated / held by hand ("hand scraper"). Another explanation is this: The "nickname" Hanseklinger for the Fischbacher originated in 1830. In a local chronicle of Fischbach from the year 1884 it says: "An extremely large number of children and adults went begging every day. The alcoholism was severely torn and there was a whole society of professional drunkards, the so-called Hanseklinger, but this explanation ignores an etymological consideration.
Great man stone
The Große Mannstein is a group of rocks on the eastern slope of the Staufen and lies at about 430 m above sea level. NHN . There is a vantage point that is particularly popular with cyclists and hikers, with a magnificent view of the Taunus and the Rhine-Main plain. According to a legend, the rocks are said to have formed when a knight was petrified by a mountain giant.
Until 1987 the Staufenhaus stood a few meters away - a villa built in 1880 by the Frankfurt banker Albert von Reinach , which was set up as a forest restaurant in 1924.
In October 1838, the brothers Friedrich , Heinrich and Max von Gagern met at Mannstein and formed the fraternal alliance of loyalty for life.
The remains of a medieval castle can still be seen in front of the rock group. It is believed that there was a wooden tower within a small rampart to control the road from the Main to the Taunus ridge. The small castle was first mentioned in 1361.
Hohestein
The Hohestein is a slate of greenish quartzite. It protruded about 80 cm from the ground. When it was removed from its former location - in the course of a survey in the 1970s - it turned out that the stone has a total length of 1.41 meters and an average width of 18 to 25 cm. Today the stone stands on a nearby private property. Nothing definite can be said about age. However, it is mentioned as early as 1714 and could have served as a boundary stone. However, it is presumably much older and dates from pre-Christian times. Shards, arrowheads and flint blades from the Stone Age have been found nearby.
Public facilities
Community center
The new Fischbacher Rathaus on what is still known as the Rathausplatz was built in 1968. Today it is a community center home Fischbacher clubs. Both the exposed concrete town hall and the town hall square used as a car park are typical examples of the application of the questionable urban planning of the 1960s in smaller communities.
The fire station of the district's volunteer fire brigade is also located on Rathausplatz .
Albert von Reinach School
The Albert-von-Reinach-Schule is a four-class elementary school (1st to 4th grade). It is located above the Rathausplatz in two buildings. Your catchment area corresponds to the Fischbach district. It is named after Albert von Reinach (born November 7, 1842 in Frankfurt am Main; † January 12, 1905), a banker from Frankfurt who had a villa built on the Staufen in 1880 and lived in in the summer. As a benefactor, he supported the Fischbach School. The older of the two buildings was built in 1952/54, the newer one in 1967. The complex replaced the old school near the Catholic Church, which had been there since at least 1822 and was demolished in 1967. The first school in Fischbach was mentioned as early as 1604.
Eichendorff School
The Eichendorff School has existed in Kelkheim-Münster since 1972. From 2002 to 2006 the upper secondary school Immanuel-Kant was gradually integrated into the Eichendorffschule. From August 1, 2006 to July 31, 2013, the former Staufen School also belonged to the Eichendorff School. Since August 1, 2013, the EDS location in Fischbach has been an independent, cooperative comprehensive school called the Fischbach comprehensive school. In the 2006/07 school year, a total of 1,550 students in 52 classes at 2 locations attended the Eichendorff School. Of these, 1271 in Münster and 279 in Fischbach. Of the 1271 Münster residents, 262 pupils attended the upper school level. 117 teachers taught. Both the general higher education entrance qualification (Abitur) as well as the secondary and secondary school qualifications can be obtained at the Eichendorffschule.
Staufenschule / Eichendorffschule / Fischbach comprehensive school
The Staufenschule (5th to 10th grade) was an additive comprehensive school with a special level that was attended by children from the districts of Fischbach, Hornau, Ruppertshain and Eppenhain. For several years it was a secondary school (for children from all Kelkheim districts as well as the community of Liederbach am Taunus ), but also had a high school branch leading up to 10th grade to prepare for the upper secondary school (this is usually the Immanuel- Kant School in Kelkheim-Münster). Between July 31, 2006 and July 31, 2013 it was part of the Eichendorffschule Kelkheim and was called EDS location Fischbach. Since August 1, 2013, the school with more than 500 pupils and around 50 teachers has been independent again and has been called the Fischbach comprehensive school. The Fischbach comprehensive school building with its exposed aggregate concrete facade shows the Hessian comprehensive school architecture of the 1970s. Inside, however, many modernizations have taken place, so that all natural science rooms are technically up-to-date and instruction is provided with electronic boards. The school offers a homework school as afternoon care for pupils in grades 5 to 7. Lunch is served in the newly designed cafeteria. The three-field sports hall offers space for physical education classes and numerous working groups.
Staufenhalle
After decades of planning, a new sports hall was opened in 2002 instead of the old school sports hall opened in 1971: the Staufenhalle. As the largest covered room in Kelkheim and equipped with a small grandstand, it is not only used for physical education at the two aforementioned schools and several Kelkheim sports clubs, but also for regionally important events.
sports ground
Sports events in the open air, on the other hand, take place on the Fischbacher sports field, which is around 200 meters outside the residential area below the Kelkheim city forest on the western edge of the village. It is mainly used for the football home games of SV Fischbach in 1912 and was inaugurated on May 31, 1930. In 1952 a major renovation followed, including turning the field by 90 degrees and adding a building with changing rooms. On August 2, 1953, the inauguration was celebrated for the second time. In 1982 the facilities were renovated and a club home was added. In the summer break of 2008, the facility was equipped with modern artificial turf. The inauguration of the square took place on September 20, 2008 in the presence of many guests and visitors.
Events and clubs
By far the largest regular event in the area takes place at the beginning of the year: Fischbach is one of the largest "strongholds" of the Fassenacht in the Rhine-Main area. The Rose Monday procession has been taking place since 1969 and is organized by the Fischbacher Carneval-Verein eV in 1958. The parade regularly attracts around 25,000 visitors, many times the number of residents, in addition to the 70 moving vehicles and foot groups at 2:11 p.m.
In addition to the Fischbacher Curb , which is celebrated on the town hall square on the last weekend in September, and which is more of local importance, the Fischbach Curb club also organizes the annual Christmas market . This takes place annually on the first weekend of Advent around the Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity.
The Fischbach / Ts. 1898 e. V. organizes an annual festival at the fire department equipment house.
A large community festival of the Protestant parish of St. John is celebrated on the day of the church patron's commemoration (June 24th).
The Hanseklinger Festival in late summer is celebrated at the aforementioned fountain in the center of the village, organized by the local association ring.
Once a year, on a Sunday in autumn, the Rettershof hosts the harvest festival and craftsmen's festival, at which both clubs and craftsmen showcase their skills.
