Kneipp Basin Ostheim

Highlight • Rest Area

The idyllic Kneipp basin, which is integrated directly into the litter, guarantees a welcome refreshment, especially on hot summer days. You can sit down and enjoy yourself at tables and benches under shady trees.

The gate bridge is one of the oldest preserved structures in Ostheim. It was built in 1609 as a two-lane bridge with four round arches and two mighty central pillars with pointed icebreaker attachments. The ravages of time had noticeably gnawed at her. Renovation work was now necessary to keep the bridge safe for traffic. Immediately after the Ostheim city festival, the building was closed to traffic. The local construction company Stiel, which has also been carrying out renovation work on the Marienberg Fortress in Würzburg for several years, was awarded the contract for the repair. A lot of injection mortar was needed to close the internal cavities and joints. In the course of the complete grouting of the stone blocks, damaged stones in the vault were replaced and extensive landings in front of, under and after the bridge were removed with excavators so that the litter can flow through all four arches again even at low tide. A flat wall of natural stones was placed around the bridge piers to relieve them during floods. For safety reasons, a railing had to be attached. At the request of the water management office, a terrace was built downstream with the help of large mussel limestone blocks, which ensures more oxygen in the water and thus benefits the fish population.
