ニーダーヒルバースハイム周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The old loading crane, which was in operation from 1745 to 1925, is always beautiful.

Class Rhine cycle path with many rest stops for a photo stop

The crane was managed by the crane foreman. He managed the crane money that was paid for loading and unloading the goods. The crane workers did the physical work on the two running wheels inside the crane. One or two servants per wheel provided the drive. This work was dangerous because the wheels could not be locked when lifting the load. If a servant slipped, the men would be thrown around. Broken bones and fatal accidents were the consequences.

The cycle path along the Rhine is simply wonderful. It is well developed and great to drive.

Very nice wide row of banks

After the lost First World War, the areas on the left bank of the Rhine came under Allied occupation. Some bridgeheads on the right bank of the Rhine were also occupied, such as the area around Wiesbaden. The occupying power confiscated the Hindenburg Bridge for the traffic of their motor vehicles and banned rail traffic. In order to be able to drive over the bridge with cars and wagons, planks were laid between and next to the rails. It was only after a long time that a few trains were allowed to use the bridge. From October 8, 1920, the Reichsbahn allowed civil traffic to use the bridge, but reserved the right to revoke this at any time. They charged a fee of 4 Reichsmarks for driving over the bridge by car, a fee that was respectable at the time. Despite this, the bridge was frequently used by commercial motor vehicle traffic.

From here you have a beautiful view of the St. Rochus chapel

The crane is not just an industrial/cultural monument, but has been expanded with a number of benches and tables to create a very nice rest area. There is a great view over the Rhine for free. :-)
