    That was the old line towards Heidelberg, even before the Durlach station was swiveled to the current location.

    Renaturation means the restoration of near-natural habitats. When streams and rivers are renatured, attempts are made to restore the original river bed, reduce flow speed and the risk of flooding, and reintroduce original flora and fauna. As early as 1979, the Pfinz was renatured at 600 meters.

    About 70 years ago, the Pfinz was expanded and straightened to a regular profile for flood protection reasons. The once convoluted and structured water bed lost its closeness to nature.

    Here a small piece was renatured. Between the new and the old railway line. Thanks for the info to Oerf!

    In 2017, the near-natural remodeling of the water below Pforzheimer Straße to the railway culvert started. Spectacular here: an excavator got stuck.
