Ottersheim

Local mayor: Rüdiger Kragl, phone: 06355/2854

The community of around 360 inhabitants is located in the beautiful Violental valley in the middle of the municipality. The village, with a history dating back over 1250 years, impresses with its south-eastern slope overlooking the Ammelbach stream with its greenery and rare variety of plants and thoroughly Mediterranean climate.

Ottersheim is centrally located and offers good transport links to the Rhine/Main, Mainz and Kaiserslautern.

   
With the seat of the Catholic parish church of St. Amadeus for four parishes - popularly known as the "Dom vom Violental", the parish has one of the most beautiful neo-Gothic churches in the Northern Palatinate. A 500-year-old baptismal font bears witness to a bishop's murder in the 11th century.

In the newly created building area "An der Griesmühle", six fully developed building plots are currently still available, but there are already reservation inquiries. In addition, we are currently planning further building plots in "Kirchenstraße". (Information under 06351-4909 47 or 06355-2854).
