After World War II Rosenhöhe was built as a small residential area out in the Hinterwald what the forest in the south-west of Offenbach is commonly called.

During World War II lights were ignited in the forest near Rosenhöhe to divert the allied air raid attacks away from the major manufacturing companies in the city.

The only remaining public swimming pool of the city is found in Rosenhöhe as well as one of the largest municipal sportsgrounds.
