The lock and the Kirschhofen double weir were built in an area where the Lahn was particularly difficult to navigate in the past due to its gradient.

The marble bridge was built at the end of the 19th century. Around 100 years later, the bridge was enriched with a statue of Saint Nepomuk.

a very nice bridge over the Lahn

A beautiful photo motif with a great view of the Lahn, but above all a bridge full of history. The stone round arches date back to the 16th century. During the Thirty Years' War, part of the bridge was blown up and replaced by the metal construction in the 19th century. As far as I know, this combination is unique and makes the bridge a cultural monument.

Medieval atmosphere when staying overnight in the youth hostel. The thick walls of the rooms and the great view of the castle opposite were a new experience. Food was good. Packed lunch available for an additional charge.

Runkel is located in the Lahn valley between the Westerwald and Taunus. Runkel was first mentioned in a document in 1259. Runkel Castle is outstanding. A knight of Charlemagne is said to have decided to build a castle in 787. The castle was built to secure the Lahn crossing and has been expanded several times.

The sculpture made in 1996 from Wirbelau Lahn marble represents Johannes von Nepomuk and was created on the Lahn Bridge to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the expulsion in 1946 - also made from Lahn marble.

Runkel is a great medieval photo motif: old bridge, castle and half-timbered houses...
