Guided Story

Feel the breeze coming off the river? This bridge has witnessed more than most people do in a lifetime. Look to your left, and you'll see the New Niederräder Bridge. But right here, on the Old Niederräder Bridge, it was once the heartbeat of industry that set the scene. Imagine the steam trains clattering over these tracks when they were the city's lifeline. If you look up, you'll notice the steel framework, a reminder of times gone by. Behind you, across the river, the trees of the Niederrad cemetery seem to whisper tales from the past. Take a moment to sense the blend of history and modernity all around you.
