Dirmstein, Administrative municipality in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Located at an elevation of 108 meters above sea level, Dirmstein spans across the Upper Rhine Plain with the Rhine river flowing 12 kilometers to the east.

The village received its first documented mention in the 8th century and obtained formal recognition in 842, developing under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Worms from 1190.

The historical center contains 48 protected architectural structures, including the Baroque simultaneous church of St Laurentius, representing the municipality's prosperous 18th-century period.

The municipality functions within the Bad Dürkheim district as part of the Verbandsgemeinde Leiningerland, providing administrative services to approximately 3,000 residents.

From 1419 to 1705, Dirmstein operated under a condominium arrangement, sharing governance between the Prince-Bishop of Worms and the Elector Palatine.
