A fountain worth seeing

Very nice area… Free parking nearby absolutely recommendable, again that’s clear 😉

The path in the forest is practically impassable due to blackberries (as of 07/2025).

The trail in the Orrer Forest along the private grounds of the Gut Pletschmühle riding stable is impassable due to thorns and overgrowth. Avoid using the marked private grounds of the riding stables at all costs.

The Rautenstrauch Canal, like the Clarenbach Canal, is part of the Lindenthal Canal system, which connects Cologne's inner and outer green belts. It begins with a circular water basin flanked by two sculptures at Karl-Schwering-Platz (a small rose garden is located right next door) and runs in three sections to the Lindenthal Belt. A special feature is the baroque design of the linear canal system, lined with avenues of maple trees. The Rautenstrauch Canal, like the neighboring Clarenbach Canal, was planned in the 1920s by urban planner Fritz Schumacher, whom Mayor Konrad Adenauer had brought to Cologne to implement the green planning. The project was implemented by the then master gardener Fritz Encke. The canal draws its water from the groundwater well near Landgrafenstraße, which was constructed in 2016. From the Rautenstrauch Canal, the water is piped to the Clarenbach Canal and the Aachener Weiher Lake. Since early summer 2020, the Rautenstrauch Canal has featured so-called plant islands. The nutrient uptake by the plants on the islands reduces the excessive growth of aquatic plants and algae in the pond. This benefits the inhabitants of the park's ponds. The plant islands also create structures and new habitats for fish and waterfowl, thus ensuring biodiversity. Last but not least, the islands also visually enhance the Rautenstrauch Canal.
