This hiking highlight (section) also points to a tour through the fortress moat. One round is recommended. In addition to some benches, the well-preserved ramparts are visible. Only the foundations of the towers are visible, as they were blown up by the French in 1689. In winter and when it is wet, the moat can be uncomfortably cold and damp compared to the surrounding area.

The origin of the fortress Rüsselsheim goes back to 1399, in its current form it was completed in 1546/47. Today it houses the city and industrial museum Rüsselsheim and also a café, where you can comfortably drink coffee and eat cake, as well as have breakfast, can also be found. The Ostrondell of the fortress can be visited at any time, the wall from Tuesday to Sunday from 10 to 16 o'clock.

The fortress is located in a quiet location directly on the Main and a small tour is worthwhile. With the Rüsselsheim app, information about the fortress and ramparts can be accessed via QR code scan.
