Church of St. Sebastian

The Jesuit Church of St. Ignatius and Franz Xaver was built between 1738 and 1760 and designed by Baroque architects such as Alessandro Galli da Bibiena, Franz Wilhelm Rabaliatti and Nicolas de Pigage. In 1773, Pope Clement XIV abolished the Jesuit order and the Jesuit church officially became the Church of the Great Court. However, as early as 1778, the church was given to the Lazarists, who themselves had to leave the church in 1794. In 1802, the Jesuit church in Mannheim became the parish church of the city. After the Second World War, the church had to be extensively restored due to bombing.

The synagogue in Fußgönheim was built in 1842. A Jewish community lived in Fußgönheim from 1684; a Jewish cemetery existed in the village from 1821 at the latest. The synagogue, built in 1842, burnt down on 19th August 1901 but was rebuilt the following year. Closed from 1928, the building was spared the pogroms of November 1938 and was used as a warehouse until then. Since 1997, the former synagogue building has been used by the German Potato Museum. Inside, some of the decorative paintings from the Jewish period have been preserved.

St. Peter's Cathedral in Worms is one of the most important Romanesque churches in the Rhine valley, together with the cathedrals of Speyer and Mainz. Only the ground plan and the lower part of the western towers are from the original construction consecrated in 1110. The rest was largely completed in 1181, but the west chancel and vault were built in the 13th century, the elaborate south portal was added in the 14th century, and the central dome was rebuilt.
