Seltz–Plittersdorf Cable Ferry

Highlight • Structure

The Seltz-Plittersdorf cable ferry crosses the Rhine using only the power of the current, without an engine. Commissioned in 1945, it was modernized in 1998 with an aluminum structure and an eco-friendly system combining solar panels and paddle wheels. It can carry up to 70 passengers, 28 bicycles, and 6 cars. The crossing is free.

Rhine Levee Trail at Iffezheim

Highlight • Cycleway

The Rhine before the last dam in Iffezheim is not only significantly higher than the surrounding area, it is also as wide as the sea. That makes it fun to drive there.
For those in a hurry, there is also the asphalt road below (without any special views and with car traffic).

View of the old railway bridge in Wintersdorf

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here you have a great view of the bridge. I recommend driving over it when you get a chance. The tracks aren't a problem if you're careful.

Wintersdorf Railway Bridge (Beinheim — Pont de Beinheim)

Highlight • Bridge

In 1893 the construction of the bridge began. Both the foundation work and the creation of the superstructure were carried out by the corporation for iron industry and bridge construction (Harkort). The bridge was 555.7 m long, had three main openings with spans of 92 m, as well as four flood openings on the west bank and five on the east bank, each with a span of 31 m. The three long power bridges were iron constructions in the form of semi-parabolic lattice beams with a rhombic, postless strut framework and a roadway below. The flood bridges used parallel-belted truss beams with a postless truss truss and overhead roadway. Caissons were used for the foundation of the stream piers. The bridge had two tracks from the start.
A pair of massive, squat defense towers flanked each of the two bridge ends. In addition, a pair of narrow, high towers covered with baroque hoods marked the transitions from the flood bridges to the main girders.
The bridge was opened on May 1, 1895. At that time, it was colloquially called the Roppenheimer Brück.
