The former free imperial city Pfeddersheim (German: [ˈpfɛdɐs.haɪm], locally [ˈpedɛʒm̩]) is a borough of Worms since 1969. It became a borough after 2,000 years of independent history.

Pfeddersheim is located in the Pfrimm valley in Rhenish Hesse and surrounded by Riesling vineyards. The well-preserved defensive towers and wall are tourist attractions, as are the synagogue and the Lutheran-Catholic Simultankirche (a church which contains a Lutheran and a Catholic church in one building). The village also has a school museum called Professor Bertleins Schulmuseum.[2]
