history

The current course of the road gives important clues to the development of the village. The Schimsheimer Effe, the village and court tree, was located on today's small square in the center of the village of Schimsheim . Today's linden tree was planted in the effe ( elm or elm ) that was struck by lightning in 1933 and finally died in the late 1970s . Originally the edge of the village was located here, in the adjacent Kirchgasse there was St. Martin's Church, which was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War.

With the expansion of the Rheinhessen highways in the 1830s and the construction of the Bingen – Worms (1870) , Mainz – Alzey (1871) and Armsheim-Wendelsheim (1871–1895) railway lines of the Hessian Ludwig Railway , a new era of local development began, especially in favor of the town of the neighboring arms home.

On June 7, 1969, the current local community of Armsheim was formed from the previously independent community of Schimsheim with 267 residents and the neighboring community of Armsheim (1,261 residents) . In the following years, the two villages began to grow together in 1983 - also through the designation of a new development area between the two places.
