The Loreley VI is a Rhine ferry operated by Fähre Loreley GmbH & Co. KG. The inland ferry crosses the Rhine at river kilometer 556 and connects the two sister cities of Sankt Goar and Sankt Goarshausen.The ferry travels in a north-south direction on the Rhine, which flows from the south-east to the north-west. To the north lies Sankt Goarshausen; to the east is the Loreley port of Sankt Goarshausen; to the south lies Sankt Goar; and to the west is the port of Sankt Goar.The ferry docks are both directly connected to a federal highway: on the left bank of the Rhine, the B 9 runs parallel to the Rhine and on the right bank of the Rhine, the B 42 runs parallel to the Rhine. The A 61, which is only a few kilometers away, runs parallel to the B 9.The ferry has been in the family for a long time.Klaus Hammerl had the "Loreley VI" built in 2002. This was towed in May by the shipyard company SET Schiffbau- und Entwicklungsgesellschaft Tangermünde (before 2000 German inland shipyards) in Tangermünde across the North Sea to Sankt Goarshausen. It has been in use since April 2003 and can transport up to 30 cars.Source and further information: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fähre_Loreley
