Very nice and well-developed cycle path.

An impressive building. It was nice that we were greeted with Edvard Grieg's morning mood. Unfortunately, I can't upload a video - the atmosphere was wonderful. The bike path along the canal is really good. I also took a few pictures for the trail view.

A little further away you can still find the old canal and locks with lock houses. I have added 2 or 3 pictures.

A smaller obstacle is this footbridge on the EV5. You either take the luggage off the bike or you push the bike and luggage together over to the other side.

Super nice cycle path along the canal.

The Écluse de Réchicourt-le-Château shaft lock, built between 1960 and 1965 and approximately 3 km from the main town along the Rhine-Marne Canal, replaces a lock staircase with six locks. Depending on the water level in the canal, their fall height is 15.45 to 16.10 meters. This makes it the highest French lock in a barge canal.

The place on the Romance-Germanic language border was first mentioned in 770, as well as in 1103 as Castrum Richis Curtis and in 1273 as Ruchesingne.[1] He belonged to the diocese of Metz.[2] As an imperial fief independent of the Duchy of Lorraine, the town belonged to the Counts of Leiningen from the 13th century. Belonging to German Bellism, their rule included Rixingen, among other things. the towns of Avricourt, Gondrexange (Gunderchingen) and Xouaxange (Schweixingen). During the Thirty Years' War, Rixingen was looted and devastated four times by the Swedes between 1628 and 1630. In 1667, Adolf Johann I of Zweibrücken came into possession of the imperial fiefdom of Rixingen through purchase; in the 18th century the Dukes of Richelieu owned the county.[1] Through the Peace of Frankfurt on May 10, 1871, the region came to the German state of Alsace-Lorraine, and the village was assigned to the Saarburg district in the Lorraine district. Rixingen was the canton's capital.[2] After the First World War, the region had to be ceded to France in 1919 due to the terms of the Treaty of Versailles and became part of the Moselle department. During the Second World War, the region was occupied by the German Wehrmacht from June 1940 to mid-1944 and was under German administration. On November 18, 1944, the place was taken by US forces in alliance with the 44th French Infantry Division,[3] which was followed by the battles for Alsace and Lorraine. Réchicourt-le-Château belonged to the constituency (canton) of Réchicourt-le-Château until it was dissolved in 2015. Unfortunately, it is not worth visiting the ruins of the château. Danger of collapse.

yes, the situation is very sad. On the side you can clearly see the advanced decay.
