"... foot and cycle bridges in the Nordsternpark For more than a hundred years, the premises of the Nordstern colliery separated the Gelsenkirchen districts of Horst and Heßler. After the colliery was closed, the area was redesigned for the 1997 Federal Horticultural Show, and the expressively designed bridges created a connection between the parts of the city. A total of five bridges connect the individual parts of the Nordsternpark with each other and with the adjacent parts of the city. Three of them are designed as tubular steel arch bridges. The bridge over the Rhine-Herne Canal is the largest of these bridges and impresses with its asymmetrical design. From the pedestrian perspective it is hardly evident that the red-painted arches of the supporting steel pipes are actually arranged parallel to each other and at right angles to the river bank. The unusual shape of the bridge results from the arrangement of the main access axis of the park, in the direction of which the footpath of the bridge is arranged diagonally to the Rhine Herne Canal. The 110 meter long bridge is constructed entirely of steel, the arches protrude 36 meters into the air. ...

We took a break here almost 20 years ago. I think a must 🍻

The red arch serves the connection Hessler - Horst in the Nordsternpark over the canal. A must, so to speak.

An extraordinary bridge over the Rhine-Herne Canal.

A few meters from the bridge lies the Grimberg port. It opened in 1914, shortly after the completion of the Rhine-Herne Canal. Overseas ore landed at the port was transported via the ore railway for smelting at Schalke's club. Coal and coke from various mines were brought to the port in the opposite direction.

The junction 44 - Zoom Erlebniswelt is the point from which you go from the ore railway line to the bike and hiking trail to the Rhine-Herne Canal! Turn left - towards Oberhausen - directly along the canal and right around - towards Herne - over the Grimberger Sichel! The Erzbahntrasse and the Rhine-Herne Canal, a must for every cyclist who likes to cycle in the countryside!

A look at one of the great bridges on the ore railway line in Gelsenkirchen.

... a great engineering skill and a wonderful arch bridge - most beautiful when there is a lot of sunshine, because then the red of the arches really seems to shine.
