The historic Runkler stone bridge from 1448 is one of the oldest bridges on the Lahn! With the Runkler castle and old town in the background, it is an absolute eye-catcher 👍 https://www.kuladig.de/Objektansicht/KLD-267710

A beautiful photo motif with a great view of the Lahn, but above all a bridge full of history. The stone round arches date back to the 16th century. During the Thirty Years' War, part of the bridge was blown up and replaced by the metal construction in the 19th century. As far as I know, this combination is unique and makes the bridge a cultural monument.

Medieval atmosphere when staying overnight in the youth hostel. The thick walls of the rooms and the great view of the castle opposite were a new experience. Food was good. Packed lunch available for an additional charge.

The Runkel Lahn Bridge is a bridge built in 1448 over the Lahn in Runkel in the Limburg-Weilburg district of Hesse. Above the bridge is Runkel Castle, and Schadeck Castle is also close to the bridge. The bridge has only had local traffic significance since a new bridge was built downstream from the Lahn in 1978. The Lahn Bridge has four segment arches. The clear width of the arches, viewed from the right in the picture, is 13.80 meters, 15.51 meters, 15.91 meters and 14.69 meters. The pillar width is 5.65 meters for the right, 4.53 meters for the middle and 4.56 meters for the left pillar. A weir runs under the third arch.

Runkel is a great medieval photo motif: old bridge, castle and half-timbered houses...

From the eastern side of the Lahn bridge one has a picture book view of the Bug Runkel. But watch out, the old bridge is narrow - drivers and tourists taking photos sometimes get in the way here 😀

Beautiful castle on the throne

An imposing castle on the Lahn, which you can usually only admire from below when you drive past there on the bike path. Opposite is the Schadeck Castle ...
