Historic Playground Airplane Sculpture at the Krefeld-Grefrath Rail Trail

Highlight • Monument

This plane stood for decades as a climbing frame on a playground near the Dorenburg in Vinkrath. It was locked for a long time because it no longer complied with today's security laws. Fortunately, citizens of the Grefrath community have campaigned for this rare piece of play equipment to be a showpiece on the popular cycle route.
