The Ox Fountain is located on the market square in Rhens, near the Old Town Hall. It is a fountain with a sculpture depicting a farmer driving an ox to a watering hole. It is intended to commemorate the former watering hole, which was located on this exact spot and was long a place of communication and gathering for the citizens of Rhens.

Great view of the Hermann Monument, near the Nahe estuary

The Sharp Tower, built from 1396 onward, is located directly on the Rhine and comprises a total of four floors, including the tower platform. It is the most striking part of the city wall. It once served as a watchtower and toll tower, and later served as a prison (1629-1648). In 1645/46, ten "witches and warlocks" were beheaded by the executioner after a painful imprisonment.

beautiful view along the Rhine

A stunningly beautiful route: On one side, the Rhine with its lively boat traffic, on the other, a barely intrusive road and railway line. The cycle path is pleasantly wide and in excellent condition – ideal for relaxed cycling in both directions. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Rhine loop to enjoy

Great view of the castle....

These are further impressive castle complexes in the Middle Rhine Valley, which is rich in castles. Even back then, it was probably already an expensive residential area.
