The Wormser gauge shows the water level in the Rhine, a beautifully restored building almost under the passage of the Nibelungen bridge.

Worms gauge house
The Rhine water level has been measured since 1819. The so-called "gauge house" has been on the Rhine since the late 1920s. It is surrounded on both sides by two other small buildings that were built in 1855 when the ship bridge was built, so they are a good 70 years older. To the left of it is the Gelderhaus, which once served as a payment office for the bridge toll. To the right of the gauge house is the dam guard's house. More information including a flood photo from 2013 at worms-erleben.de/erleben/erleben-und-feiern/kultur/Geschichte/anekdoten/gelder_waechterhaus.php?highlight=pegelh%C3%A4uschen

Not far from the bridge Nibelungen is the small turret on which the gauge clock emblazoned.
