From here you already have the first good views of the two Holtenau high bridges.

The Holtenau high bridges are high bridges that lead over the Kiel Canal in Kiel and connect the two Kiel districts Wik and Holtenau. The western bridge is called "Prinz-Heinrich-Brücke" (1911/1995) and is already the second with this name at this point. The eastern one is called "Olympiabrücke" (1972) because it was built as part of the expansion work for the 1972 Summer Olympics. Each of the bridges has a headroom of 42 meters, two lanes of one lane on federal highway 503 for cars and a sidewalk for pedestrians and cyclists. There is a parking lot for tourists, shipspotters and other visitors to the Kiel Canal on the eastern southern ramp of the carriageway towards Holtenau.

You look at the Holtenauer almost always and automatically 😊...
Whether over, under or past it - the high bridge magically attracts all eyes ☺️..
