The wooden bridge has been open at least since October 3, 2025. This can be verified with the picture posted by Kirstaedter from his tour "Mariannenweg – Würzbacher Schleife". Here: https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2614623129

It's it ...

The new wooden bridge over the northern arm of the Niederwürzbacher Weiher pond, which provides a shortcut to the Gut Junkerwald peninsula, is nearing completion and opening. It is a replacement for a previously existing bridge, which had been closed for years (since 2019 - see also photo) due to dilapidation. Completion and thus the opening of the new bridge was scheduled for August 2025. As of August 29, 2025, the bridge had not yet opened.

The Gollenstein near Blieskastel in Saarland is an approximately 4,000-year-old menhir and, at almost seven meters high, the largest in Central Europe. It is one of the landmarks of the Baroque town of Blieskastel. It is believed that the stone was erected around 2,000 BC and served as an ancestor cult. During World War II, the Wehrmacht toppled it because they suspected it might be a targeting aid for French artillery. The stone broke into four pieces. After the war, it was reassembled, and the remains can still be seen today.

The castle church of Blieskastel is one of the most outstanding churches on the threshold between late Baroque and Neoclassicism in southwest Germany. It was built as a Franciscan monastery church from 1776 to 1781 according to plans by the architect and building director Peter Reheis under the Counts von der Leyen. Reheis worked under building director Friedrich Joachim Stengel in Saarbrücken until he was called to Blieskastel by Count Franz Karl von der Leyen in 1773. Since the dissolution of the convent in 1802, the church has served as a parish church dedicated to Saints Anne and Philip. It is a rectangular hall church with a recessed polygonal choir and a richly decorated gable façade. The gable roof is surmounted by a tower-like turret with an onion dome to the west and a smaller turret to the east. Extensive crypts lie beneath the choir and nave. The high-quality furnishings date from the time of its construction. Due to its prominent location above the town, the castle church occupies a special position in the urban fabric of the small Baroque residence of Blieskastel. The "large turret" is a characteristic landmark of Blieskastel due to its bizarre shape. From 2001 to 2004, the German Foundation for Monument Protection funded the restoration of the facade and the re-roofing of the Great Tower.

When visiting Blieskastel, you should take a look at the orangery with its baroque garden.
