with lovely rest areas on the Wied, named after AK's French twin town.

It's cozy and beautiful here in the city park!

This rainwater retention basin was created as a measure for flood protection in the municipality of Eitorf (located on the lower reaches of the Eipbach/ estuary into the Sieg) after a devastating flood devastated the central town of Eitorf in a very short time in the 1970s. Fortunately, there were no fatalities, but there was considerable damage to property. A huge wave of water rolled down the valley from the Eipbachtal. As a result, the municipality's flood protection was improved through numerous measures. One of them is this rainwater retention basin, which is intended to hold back the water masses that pour from the Leuscheid area around the Wohmbach into the Eipbach to a certain extent.

Beautiful park in Altenkirchen. Really great for resting.

Beautiful city park with a pond. At first glance, one wonders what the metal frames with the chains are for. They are part of the disc golf course at Parc de Tarbes.

Dams the water of the Wohmbach here.

Unfortunately fenced in, you can't get directly to the water.

today a biotope of the Wohmbach at the tributary to the Eipbach. The bank comes highly recommended. Function as a retention basin for the upper Eipbachtal region, was created after the flood of the century in the 1970s with flooding in the town center of Eitorf.
