Always nice to stand here and look at the beginning of the Middle Rhine Valley.

Well-deserved sight after 124 km Naheradweg. (From the source in Selbach, Saarland)👍

From there you have a good view of the Mouse Tower and the ruins of Ehrenfels.

The Rossel castle ruins were built in 1774 by Count Ostein on the highest elevation in the Niederwald. It is a popular tourist destination, especially because of its wonderful view of the Nahe estuary and the Binger Loch.

Picturesque in three directions: close to Bingen (church, bridge, castle), Niederwald monument, Mouse Tower and Ehrenfels Castle

After the lost First World War, the areas on the left bank of the Rhine came under Allied occupation. Some bridgeheads on the right bank of the Rhine were also occupied, such as the area around Wiesbaden. The occupying power confiscated the Hindenburg Bridge for the traffic of their motor vehicles and banned rail traffic. In order to be able to drive over the bridge with cars and wagons, planks were laid between and next to the rails. It was only after a long time that a few trains were allowed to use the bridge. From October 8, 1920, the Reichsbahn allowed civil traffic to use the bridge, but reserved the right to revoke this at any time. They charged a fee of 4 Reichsmarks for driving over the bridge by car, a fee that was respectable at the time. Despite this, the bridge was frequently used by commercial motor vehicle traffic.

You have a great view from the Rossel :)

The Rossel, an artificial ruin, is located on the western boundary between Rüdesheim am Rhein and its district of Assmannshausen in the Hessian Rheingau-Taunus district and is now a destination in the Niederwald landscape park with a view of the opposite mouth of the Nahe into the Rhine and the Binger Hole. At their feet, about 400 meters to the south, are the ruins of Ehrenfels Castle and, on a small offshore island in the Rhine, the Bingen Mouse Tower. The Rossel is about a 20-minute walk from the Niederwald Monument and a 10-minute walk from the Niederwald hunting lodge. Count Johann Friedrich Karl Maximilian von Ostein had the artificial ruins built in 1774 as part of the transformation of the Niederwald into a landscape park for his guests. It was named after a pile of Taunus quartzite rubble of the same name in its immediate vicinity. The Rossel consists of a square main tower about 5 meters wide with a small terrace to the south facing the Rhine and a small stair tower to the north-west. The ruins built from field stones are decorated with castle elements. The Rossel is surrounded by several vantage points, such as the Naheblick (east) and the Knights' Hall (northwest) and the so-called magic cave (north), an artificial cave about 60 meters long.
