Polle Ferry and Castle Ruins

Slow down on the quiet eastern bank of the Weser, with a wonderful view of Polle and its castle ruins; the ferryman does his work in peace.

Located directly under the castle ruins, the Poller ferry is a popular photo opportunity for motor and bicycle tourists who cross the river at this point. Yaw ferries, of which there are only very few left on the Weser, do not need their own drive. By inclining against the current, the flat ferry yaws along the high rope over the river. The Gierseilfähre Polle can transfer vehicles up to 40t. The ferry generally runs all year round.
