Portal in Langgasse from Haus Hinkel

The main building is a stately, late Baroque plastered building with two storeys under a dormer-studded mansard hipped roof and was built in 1742/43 over an angular floor plan in a corner position to Langgasse. The windows are provided with drilled and profiled sandstone walls. After the baroque church was demolished in 1880, the building was extended northwards in its old form. From 1993 to 1995 the stone was renewed and the openings in the shop were dismantled. In the nine-axis facade of the square there is the eccentric doorway with a profiled basket arch over pilasters, which is marked on the relief stone with "1742 IHZ" (= Johannes Zimmer). Next to it, above the outside staircase with cheek walls, there is an auricular portal with an old skylight. The basement windows are fitted with stone slides. The eaves cornice is also profiled. On the shorter side of the main building facing Langgasse there are partly window frames from the construction period. There is a splendid stepped pilaster portal with a profiled volute basket arch, apex stone and gusset flowers; there is a similar one at Alzeyer Straße 1 . The retracted segment gable with a laurel wreath is labeled as follows:

The house offered guest rooms and horse stables. The leash riders from the Rhine also stayed here with their horses on the way back from Worms to Bingen , down the Rhine, on the shorter route over land and not along the Rhine. The horses of these leash riders pulled the cargo ships up the Rhine from Bingen to Worms.

In 1891 and 1902 it was expanded, modernized and in 1909 named a cultural monument of the Grand Duchy of Hesse . The property remained in the family's possession until the 1980s; the last couple who owned it had no descendants. It was given its current name "Haus Hinkel" in 1980, named after the heirs of the last Mrs. Zimmer. The house stood empty for a long time.

The local community of Flonheim acquired the now ailing property. A hotel was to be built, but high costs brought the plan to fruition.

From 1992 onwards, the property was comprehensively and professionally renovated by the couple Edda and John Birchall, supported by funds from "Structural Planning Rhineland-Palatinate" (under the direction of the architectural office Dada Mascheck, Frankfurt a.Main, site management: Hess, Nicolas). In 1995, Interior Minister Walter Zuber opened the "Haus Hinkel" in the presence of the local mayor Ernst-Ludwig Elbert. Changing exhibitions have been presented here since 1999. A restaurant opened on the ground floor in 2012. Since May 2014 art exhibitions with various works from collections and works by contemporary artists have been held.
