The so-called Horse Fountain, located on Hauptstraße in Niefern, was inaugurated on November 30, 2013. The idea for the fountain and its procurement came from Ulrich Kollmar. The sculpture featuring a rider and horse was designed by Berlin artist Bärbel Dieckmann.

The Protestant Church in Niefern ranks third among the cultural monuments of the Enzkreis, after Maulbronn Monastery and the Tiefenbronn Parish Church. Along with Niefernburg Castle, it is the oldest and most venerable building in the town and forms its geographical and historical center. This Gothic church dates back to the 13th and 14th centuries.

Vaihingen's oldest church (Romanesque origins, choir 1490) has been rebuilt several times. It remained a cemetery church until 1839. From 1871 onward, it served as a gymnasium. It was renovated in keeping with its style in 1980. Old gravestones from the former cemetery can still be seen around St. Peter's Church, whose attic houses the Municipal Museum.
