Konrad Schubach Bridge over the Sauer River

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge connects Germany and Luxembourg. It was named after Konrad Schubach.
In 1952, Konrad Schubach became district administrator in Bitburg. There, in consultation with Minister-President Altmeier, he was tasked with establishing good relations with Luxembourg and the French occupiers. During this period, the German-Luxembourg Nature Park was created. After ten years, he served again as district administrator in Trier for two years before being appointed President of the Trier administrative district in 1964.

Echternach Border Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

We passed here on our bike tour from Bitburg to Echternach. In my opinion, this cycle path is not as heavily frequented as the Kyll cycle path or the Maare Mosel cycle path, so cycling is more pleasant.
