There are many traditional fishing gallows on both sides of the Rhine. The small houses were mainly used for fishing in earlier times, but are rarely used today. The fishing gallows are almost all privately owned.

There are a whole series of these buildings. Also on the other side of the Rhine. Who knows the background?
