From the category "learned something new thanks to Wiki" ☺️:
The name Rossert is derived from an Old High German word for scree.
The Rossert gave its name to the "Gemeinde Rossert" (community of Rossert), which existed from 1971 to 1977, and whose districts, Eppenhain and Ruppertshain, were later incorporated

Outdoor yoga at the Bremthal model airfield in the morning didn't quite calm the bumblebees...

The result was this colorful exploration tour in and around Flörsheim-Dalsheim, featuring the 1.1 km long, famous "Fleckenmauer" (Fragment Wall), partially walkable city wall with turrets,
amidst vineyards as far as the eye can see, five lovingly restored trullos, a panoramic lounger by the babbling

With a kayak and a few snacks 💞🍗🧀🍇🍅🥂 in the cooler, we headed to the Old Rhine branch near Ginsheim for an idyllic evening and to collect swan feathers.
A few SUPs were out and about, all of them completely relaxed and enjoying the balmy summer evening.
We had underestimated the length of this Old

An impressive short trip 🏰 to the medieval fortress La Cité with its numerous towers (said to be 52) and a double wall that towers mightily on a hill. The medieval alleys with their French flair are worth seeing.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site.

A wonderful hike along the La Muga River on "wild boar paths" to a bridge and a 13th-century castle.
Surefootedness required: some of the paths are blocked, with a small climbing section on all fours and a short section of secured ropes and scree.
You can also swim in the Muga River's "pools."
Be careful

Ziel heute war aber insbesondere die Barbarossasäule, wo Kaiser Barbarossa 1184 das Mainzer Hoftagsfest als großes Reichsfest mit vermutlich 40.-70.000 Teilnehmern abgehalten hat.

In 1184, Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa (the "Redbeard") held a grand imperial festival at Pentecost on the Maaraue near Mainz/Kostheim.
This imperial festival was very lavish: there were jousting tournaments, banquets, a chapel, and numerous tent villages – sources speak of 40,000 to 70,000 participants
