June 18, 2026, Nibelungen Crossing Memorial

Anyone following the tourist use of the Nibelungenlied must of course include this place and this monument in their trophy collection. And when that is completed, perhaps there will also be time to engage with the Thidrekssaga (Dietrich von Bern) or with the subsequent treatise by the historian Ritter-Schaumburg, who is not recognized by everyone. In tireless research on historical and geographical backgrounds, he has relatively convincingly traced a completely different path of the "Nibelungen": "Die Nibelungen zogen nordwärts" (The Nibelungen moved northwards) is the title of his work on this, it is exciting to read and - provides many new tour destinations!🤗 Would you like an example: From Rome to Bern in two days by horse/bicycle - is that not possible? Yes, if you know that Trier was the "Rome of the North" and "Bern" was another name for Bonn …

The stretches along the Danube are super quiet and largely flat.

Empty mill with beautiful motifs. Some hikers report an aggressive pensioner. But there is no fence and no sign. Just be quiet.
