    Leopold Canal memorial stone
    On November 15, 1846, the obelisk was erected on the Leopold Canal. It was donated by Grand Duke Leopold in gratitude for the construction of the canal. The Leopold Canal spared the neighboring communities from the floods of the Dreisam, Elz and Glotter. The inscription reads:

    "To ward off the devastating floods - the Dreisam and Elz - these canals were built under the blessed government - of Grand Duke Leopold - by the combined forces of the state - and the communities involved - from 1837 to 1842 - the communities grateful to Grand Duke Leopold"

      The monument is not my highlight now. The crossing over the bridge and the view are really nice.

        Here at the junction of the cycle paths, the further direction is often decided anew. Close by is the Messmer art gallery in the former Riegeler brewery with changing exhibition themes.
