Built in 1743/44 and in operation until 1926, the historical wine-growing crane on the banks of the Rhine is the landmark of Oestrich. The wooden substructure of the crane occupies an area of about eight by eight meters, the roof top and the boom are rotatably mounted.

The old wine loading crane is the landmark of Oestrich. The facility, built in 1744, was in operation until 1926.
You can visit it and see how the Rhine ships used to be loaded and unloaded.
With the principle of the hamster wheel.
You should visit it
