The new bridge is beautiful and wide.

If only the industrial building that overshadows everything wasn't visible there... a cement factory if I'm correctly informed

The Main Lock in Himmelstadt is one of 37 locks on the 400 km long, fully canalized stretch of the Main River between Mainz and Bamberg. It was built between 1935 and 1937 and opened in 1940. The lock chamber holds 17,000 m³ of water and is 300 m long and 12 m wide. In approximately 10 minutes, ships overcome a water level difference of up to 4.3 meters. Three ships with a gross tonnage of over 1,000 can be locked through simultaneously. Source: https://himmelstadt.de/leben-erleben/freizeit-tourismus/sehenswertes/schleuse/

Karlstadt is the district seat of the Lower Franconian district of Main-Spessart and is located approximately 30 kilometers north of Würzburg in the Main Franconian wine-growing region. The first mention of Karlburg in 742 is directly related to the founding of the Diocese of Würzburg. Around 1202, the settlement of Karlstadt, located near Karlburg, was founded by Bishop Konrad von Querfurt. The exact founding date is unknown. The earliest evidence of the town seal dates back to 1277. Source: Wikipedia

Finally a new bridge!

Beautiful panoramic views of the Main River loop amidst the black pine forest. Highly recommended 😍.

The new Main Bridge ("Höchheimer Steg") between Veitshöchheim and Margetshöchheim was officially opened to pedestrians and cyclists on November 5, 2024, after four years of construction. Margetshöchheim Mayor Waldemar Brohm and his Veitshöchheim colleague Jürgen Götz officially opened it during a small ceremony. The Höchheimer Steg crosses the federal waterway Main and connects the two communities of Margetshöchheim and Veitshöchheim at km 244.4 of the Main River. The bridge is a cable-stayed bridge (anchored suspension bridge with two pylons) with a usable width of 3.00 meters and a railing height of 1.30 meters. The total length is 311.00 meters, and the suspension bridge itself is 112.00 meters long. The bridge has no obstructive piers in the Main River. Since larger ships now operate on the Main, the old Ludwig-Volk-Steg (commissioned on July 24, 1967) was no longer considered stable in the event of a collision with the pier foundations. On January 20, 2025, the old Ludwig-Volk-Steg was closed after almost 58 years. Work began in February 2025 to prepare for the dismantling of the Ludwig-Volk-Steg. The dismantling was completed in June 2025.

Veitshöchheim is a municipality in the Würzburg district of Lower Franconia, located on the Main River. The town is a former summer residence of the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg, later of the Kings of Bavaria. The palace complex with its Rococo garden is famous. Veitshöchheim was first mentioned in 779. The parish of Veitshöchheim was donated to St. Stephen's Monastery by Bishop Emehard of Würzburg in 1097. Veitshöchheim Palace was built between 1680 and 1682 under Prince-Bishop Peter Philipp von Dernbach and expanded by Balthasar Neumann from 1749 to 1753. Work began on the palace's courtyard garden in 1702. The parish church of St. Vitus, which still stands today, was consecrated in 1691, and the Veitshöchheim synagogue was built between 1727 and 1730. In 1814, the town finally fell to the state of Bavaria, having been part of the Grand Duchy of Würzburg just nine years earlier. Source: Wikipedia
