    This bridge led from the villa of the Worms textile manufacturer (Amalienhof) Wilhelm Valckenberg to the Bassmann Park, which he also owned. It was built in 1900 by the architect Heinrich Metzendorf. In the same year, the "blue tower" was built on the summit of the Hohberg above the Bassmann Park, also according to plans by Metzendorf.

      If you come from Konrad-Adenauer-Straße and turn onto the hiking trail or V-Biketrail, you walk towards this bizarre-looking bridge whose function only becomes apparent from above: an access bridge directly to the villa and park below the castle clinic.

        Very nice end to the ravine when you come from above.
