Neisse Bridge at Groß Gastrose (Albertinenaue)

The Neisse Bridge near Groß Gastrose is an old bridge between Germany and Poland that was attempted to be blown up during the Second World War. However, only a small part on the German side fell apart. The main part above the Neisse and the part on today's Polish side were preserved. Between 1945 and 2007 a fence prevented crossing. Since the Schengen Agreement, the bridge can be crossed again. The Groß Gastros fire department built a small staircase on the German side so that the difference in height could be overcome despite the missing bridge section. It is a very interesting, historical and beautiful place.

The stairs have now been dismantled.

Whimsical as Poland is still separated from Germany and World War II has an effect!
