The remaining ruins of the two northern blocks are also marketed to tourists – signs point the way and there is a paid parking lot. Information panels explaining the history of the site are lacking.

A large part has already been renovated. But at the northern end of the enormous structure, the ruins can still be seen.

A visit in the dark is worthwhile. The bridge is beautifully illuminated at night. An evening stroll is particularly rewarding during the colder months. If you like, you can also order food and drinks here. 😉

Initially a little skeptical, the tour turned out to be a real highlight, including a "lost place" at the dog beach. Stormy seas and bright sunshine made it easy to enjoy the tour. On the ride home to Binz, you can indulge in a leisurely pace on very wide bike paths.
