The Lech is a right tributary of the Danube. The 256 km long river has its source in Vorarlberg and flows through Tyrol and southern Bavaria, where it flows into the Danube. Shortly before the Austrian-German border, it takes up the Vils, forms the artificial Lechfall before Füssen and crosses Swabia and Upper Bavaria on its way. The largest cities on the Lech are Landsberg and Augsburg, where it receives its largest tributary, the Wertach. The river flows into the Danube at Marxheim.

High drain Augsburg

Highlight • Monument

Here you can hear the water rushing! The Hochablass has been damming the Lech since the late Middle Ages and diverting water into the city's canals - a relief for crafts, trades and later industrial enterprises. First mentioned in a document in 1346, the plant was rebuilt in its present location in 1552. The listed reinforced concrete structure received its current form after a flood in 1912. As part of the Augsburg water management system, the Hochablasse has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2019.

Schwarze Kiste at the Hochablass

Highlight • Cafe

The sculpture is interesting. I wrote it down again what it says on the blackboard. 😊
The 4 m and 3 m high sculpture consists of basic material from packaging waste, etc. from the Siebentischwald.
Total garbage collected for the campaign: approx. 600 kilos (roughly equivalent to what a person produces on average per year)
