Information

Horchheim was first mentioned in documents in 766, but the place must be much older. This is proven by finds that date back to the Stone Age and are used to document Horchheim's history. Edmund Heuser's collection illustrates the settlement development that began in prehistory and early history, which was influenced by changing ruling relationships, land consolidation and technical progress.
