On May 18, 2022, I drove along the Rhine here in beautiful weather, and the Rhine was a fantastic color. The view of Rheinfelden from the German side is beautiful.

The Riburg Saltworks in Rheinfelden began operations in 1848. Its 32 employees specialize in the production of loose salt, primarily used as de-icing salt. This requires highly efficient distribution logistics, especially in winter; around 1,100 tons of salt are produced daily, and at peak times, up to 8,000 tons of salt are loaded. Some of this is transported by rail. This is a tradition at the Riburg Saltworks: The production facility has been connected to the railway network since 1875, when the Bözberg railway line was put into operation. To store the salt, the Riburg Saltworks has two gigantic wooden dome structures, unique in Switzerland: Salt Domes I and II. Together with the conventional storage halls, the two salt domes offer space for over 240,000 tons of salt. This would ensure Switzerland's unrestricted supply of de-icing salt even after twelve consecutive weeks of extreme winter (source: Saline.ch).

The chapel is idyllically situated on the edge of the forest and impresses with its simple yet well-kept architecture. The view over the surrounding fields and forests is particularly beautiful.

The ascent to the top of the tower leads first via a narrow spiral staircase, then up a solid steel staircase to the tower platform. Caution! The view from the top of the tower is limited. The high surrounding wall and the exit of the stairwell prevent a clear 360° view. Kids, in particular, will miss out on this and will probably be disappointed.
