The Evangelical Church in Rodheim-Bieber in the district of Gießen is a Gothic aisle church with a late Romanesque choir tower. The church is a hessian cultural monument.
The origins of the Rodheim church are believed to date back to the 13th century; a parish priest is documented for the year 1263. In the late Middle Ages, the parish was assigned to the archpresbytery of Wetzlar of the archdeaconry of St. Lubentius Dietkirchen in the Diocese of Trier. The filial church was Fellingshausen until 1958. With the introduction of the Reformation in 1526, the church community switched to the Protestant confession. The local nobles Magnus Holzapfel, a Gleiberger bailiff, and Marx Lesch promoted the new faith. The first Protestant pastor was Heinrich Rabe from 1534 to 1560.
