Hindenburg Bridge Ruins

Highlight • Monument

The Hindenburg Bridge was a bridge over the Rhine that was destroyed in World War II and never rebuilt. You can see the remains of the bridge on both sides of the Rhine, they are partially overgrown. Remnants of former bridge piers can even be found in the Rhine. Nowadays there are no longer any Rhine bridges on a long section. You either use one of the many ferries, which is always an experience, or take a longer detour.

Electoral Castle of Eltville

Highlight • Castle

The electoral castle with its official garden, the romantic courtyard, the moat and the idyllic rose gardens is worth seeing and should not be missed. In general, the rose town of Eltville is worth a visit.

View of Rüdesheim on the Rhine

Highlight • Viewpoint

The wine beach in Rüdesheim is very nice for a rest. There are wines from the region to try in a beautiful ambience. There are also occasional live musical performances on Sunday afternoons. Bratwurst from pork or beef as well as from game and other small things are offered for consumption. There are also deckchairs available, which invite you to relax in the sun with a view of the Rhine. The price for a glass of wine (0.2ml) is €4.50. The venison bratwurst with rolls for €4.50 is highly recommended. More information is available at weinstrand.de.
