    The dyke cross in Ork commemorates the "Operation Plunder", the crossing of the Rhine by the Allies in March 1945 and the approaching end of the Second World War.

      At the dike cross at Ork you have a very nice view of the countryside. The Rhine somehow generates holiday thoughts. You can sit here elevated on a bench and watch the passing ships.

        After the increase and renovation of the Rhine dike, the cross was handed over on August 31, 2003. Benches and tables set up next to the cross allow visitors to enjoy the magnificent view over the Rhine - or into the starry sky. The water-side path from the dyke base to the water, created in 2011, allows the visitor to reach the Rhine with dry feet.
