+++New opening hours from August 1, 2025+++ The sculpture garden in Plinz was created by the artist Jochen Bach in the mid-1990s. He moved to Plinz in 1972 with his wife Gisa, then young architects, and transformed it into a very special place. He exhibited and sold his paintings in the former mill. Sadly, he passed away at the end of 2022 at the age of 80. I, his daughter, have now returned home and continue to run the gallery, selling and exhibiting my own works here alongside his paintings. We maintain and maintain the sculpture garden with private funds and would like to continue to share it with people who come to Plinz to find peace and inspiration. Since this is a rather time-consuming undertaking, we will be limiting access to two days a week starting August 1, 2025: Saturday & Sunday 🪴 Garden open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. 🖼 Gallery open from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Visits outside of these hours are only possible upon personal request. Admission remains free, but we ask for a small financial donation to help maintain the garden. Information at https://plinz.de Best regards from Plinz, Philine Bach

The station was sold, and the result is impressive. A lot of money was certainly invested in the reconstruction and extensive renovation. Well done!

The Saale Valley Bridge along the A4 motorway near Jena is not only one of the most impressive bridges in Germany, but also a significant monument to the history and progress of bridge construction. It carries the B88, two Deutsche Bahn tracks, the Saale River, and the Saale floodplain. With its 17 main arches, it rises as a striking arched bridge made of limestone masonry. At 794.27 meters long, it was once the longest motorway bridge in the former Reichsautobahn network and remains an indispensable component of one of Thuringia's busiest intersections.

Currently a very finely rolled forest path, no potholes, but quite dusty after a long dry period

Beautiful view of the Saale

Transfer to the right. Exit is great, but re-entry is a bit more challenging.
