Brückenhaus an der Leineinsel

Impressive architecture. Noble residential area.

Today bridge house, once turbine house of Döhrener wool. The extra-designed turbine channel (which was then laid out as a third leash arm) was dammed up and turbines supplied the factory with relatively environmentally friendly electricity. When demolishing the wool, the Neue Heimat developed the still-new turbines, sold them and concreted the turbine shafts. Later attempts to use the energy of the water again here at the turbine weir or at the neighboring large leash helm have so far had no success.

Historic lock house with passage.

Interesting to see it up close.
