View of Mühlheim Lock

Highlight • Viewpoint

In 1883, the expansion of the Main began, which was intended to secure the connection to Rhine shipping. Today, 11 systems from Mainz to Miltenberg, some of which have been retrofitted with pleasure boat locks and fish ladders, ensure free travel. After the First World War, a barrage and a hydroelectric power station in the Main were built in Mühlheim, called the “Church in the Main” because of its striking architecture. During the further expansion of the Main after 1965, the Mühlheim barrage was renewed. The new lock system (length: 300 m, width: 12 m, drop height: 3.77 m) was put into operation in 1980 and was later supplemented with a weir and a boat lock. The old hydroelectric power station on the right side of the Main was demolished in 1989 and replaced by a modern system with two turbines and an output of 4800 KWh.

Philippsruhe Palace

Highlight • Castle

The baroque Philippsruhe Palace was built between 1700 and 1725 by Count Philipp Reinhard of Hanau. His current attire was significantly influenced in the 19th century by Landgrave Friedrich Wilhelm of Hesse Rumpenheim. In addition to the Hanau Historical Museum and the wedding hall of the Hanau registry office, Philippsruhe Palace is home to an extensive range of restaurants.

Mühlheim Lock and Weir

Highlight • Structure

If you do not want to use the chargeable ferries in Dörnigheim or Rumpenheim, you can change the main site for free here.

On both sides you can cycle on paved paths along the Main.

Either in the direction of Frankfurt / Offenbach or Seligenstadt.
