Descent from Altenburg to the Historic Covered Bridge to Rheinau

Highlight • Bridge

On this well-paved, low-traffic road you get from Altenburg down to the Rhine. Over the Rhine bridge you get to beautiful Rheinau, which is located in the middle of a loop of the Rhine, and thus to Switzerland. If you go straight instead, you will get to Jestetten.

Thur Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

An anecdote about the Elliker Bridge: During the Second World War, the bridges near the border were charged with explosive charges. Fortunately, there was no need to actually trigger them. However, the Elliker bridge flew into the air because the explosive charge was struck by lightning shortly after the end of the war.

Strickhof Vineyard Wülflingen

Highlight • Natural

Strickhof is a winery however it is only used for agricultural science for discovery and analysis of the vines and related plants. There is no café or bar here to get refreshments but it is a nice shady place to have a rest.
