    The Laach is a tributary of the Rhine

      Paradise, usable space, danger zone: Werthchen, the Rhine peninsula in Rheidt, was a whole world of its own for its residents. Today it serves tourists as a recreational area.

      How it used to look there - and how much life was going on there - “Werth was vital for the residents. Almost every square meter was cultivated. Basket makers have planted willows and fruit trees on the northern side. And even the grass on the dam was used, it could be leased in strips of 50 meters each. "

      The floodplain between Kuhgasse (today's Werthstrasse) and Rheinstrasse was by no means a play area, even if it looked quite overgrown.

      Basket makers drove away the cheeky brats, after all the willow twigs were no longer suitable for basket making once we had played with them. But what should you do as a child - without recreational facilities as we know them today? The youth found their own places: the bank opposite the Herseler Werth became an improvised bathing establishment.
