A board of the certificate in the original script is on one of the three slate blocks on the Trimbser village square.

nature

A popular hiking destination is the under nature conservation standing Nettetal , as it is almost completely untouched. On May 31, 2009 the new 9.2 km long dream path was opened in Trimbs . The dream path allows insights into the earth's and natural history. The Nette slate path begins in the middle of Trimbs on the village square at the old Nettebrücke. The Nette was voted the river landscape of the year 2008/2009.

church

The former parish church from 1738 is dedicated to St. Consecrated Peter. Trimbs has not had its own parish since 1805. Trimbs was assigned to the parish of Welling. The church was completely renovated a few years ago, and old wall paintings were found, which could be highlighted again in the course of this renovation.

Attractions

Sights include not only the church, but also a group of three blocks of slate on the village square. The first block of slate is reminiscent of the formerly very intensive mining in and around Trimbs. The coats of arms of the Trimbser local clubs, "TV 1911" (sports club), "MGV Eintracht" (men's choir) and the "MC Arion" (mandolin club) are engraved on the back. On block 2 you can see the patron saint of miners, St. Barbara on the front and the Trimbser Church with the patron saint Peter on the back. Block 3 shows on the front the Trimbser Mühle, which ran until the early 1960s. On the back there is a plate made of copper, which in the original script from 1019 provides evidence of the foundation of today's Trimbs. The place can now look back on 990 years of history. The former oil mill ("Ollesmüll") only exists as a lifelike, beautiful 1:12 replica on the place where the "original" was. Behind the church there is also a war memorial, which names the dead of the First and Second World Wars. There are also various old crosses from graves from the last centuries.
