There have been three Mithraea (temples to Mithras) discovered at Heddernheim.[2] A hoard of silver votive plaques was discovered in the Roman settlement of Nida near Heddernheim in the nineteenth century, some of which are in the British Museum.[3] The offerings appear to have been deposited in a shrine dedicated to the Roman God of Jupiter Dolichenus.
