At the roof of the house in the Hardtstraße 2 which is used as the primary school you will find this siren.
We assume it is used for fire alarms as the other identical sirens in the villages around as well.
But we could not find a website which describes this one.

"Der Grundstein für das heutige Gebäude der Grundschule Kempenich in der Hardtstraße wurde im Jahr 1908 gelegt. Zum Einzugsbereich der Schule zählen außer Kempenich auch Hohenleimbach und Spessart.

Aus Anlass des 100-jährigen Bestehens des Gebäude wurde im Mai 2008 der in Stein gemeißelte Name der Schule feierlich enthüllt und eingesegnet. Bei der Jubiläumsfeier wurde eine eigens verfasste Schulchronik angeboten, in der sich auf mehr als 150 Seiten die Geschichte der Schule in Worten und Bildern widerspiegelt. Die Namen von fast 3000 Schülern allen jemals dort tätigen Lehrpersonen sind in dieser Chronik erfasst, die meisten von ihnen sind auch auf einem der fast 250 Fotos verewigt."

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the building, the name of the school, carved in stone, was solemnly unveiled and blessed in May 2008. At the anniversary celebration a specially written school chronicle was offered, in which the history of the school is reflected in words and pictures on more than 150 pages. The names of almost 3000 students of all the teachers who ever worked there are recorded in this chronicle, most of them are also immortalized in one of the almost 250 photos."
