The Hindenburg Bridge over the Weser in Rinteln was built in 1927 and after only 18 years of use in April 1945 blown up by German forces retreating and already in October 1946 again 'lifted out of the water' and completely restored. Today, it is a modern landmark in the Weser Renaissance city and enjoys great popularity as a photo opportunity. The immediate area is very attractive designed and for me a good 'take-off and landing place' for hiking.

The Hindenburg Bridge is better known in Rinteln and the surrounding area as the Weser Bridge. It connects the two parts of the city and is an arched bridge.
