    After the turbulent outflow over the mightiest basalt massif in Europe, the Vogelsberg, the Nidda reaches the fertile Wetterau. After a total of 90 kilometers in length and 625 meters in altitude, it slowly flows into the Main. Shortly before the mouth in Höchst, the Nidda forms the Wörthspitze with the Main near the Bolongaro Palace, a peninsula that is often flooded during high tide. The name "Wörth" comes from "Werde" and means island or shore location. The Höchst Mainhafen, which had existed since Roman times, was located there until 1982. In the meantime, a waterfront promenade with green spaces and a beer garden has emerged from the former port. Three old loading cranes remind us of the past as industrial monuments. Höchst, widely known as an industrial location, has a well-preserved old town that is characterized by half-timbered houses and has been a listed building since 1972. Sitting on the Schlossplatz, you can relax while enjoying typical Hessian specialties, just like Goethe and Mozart once did.

      The houseboats are inhabited and curious people are not necessarily sooo welcome. Nevertheless, it's always really nice here. Also a nice place to take a break before taking the passenger ferry to the Schwanheimer Ufer

        Yes, anyone who lives in a houseboat has to be able to cope with curiosity.. 🤩

        Otherwise, move back to the anonymous city!
