Weir near Kembs / Rosenau

Highlight • Other

Hydroelectric power station and large locks - Kembs Built between 1928 and 1932, it is the first hydroelectric power station to be built on the Franco-German Rhine. The Kembs dam feeds the Grand Canal d'Alsace. It regulates the amount of water in the Rhine and keeps the Grand Canal d'Alsace at a quasi-constant level. (visit.alsace)

Very large lock built by Le Corbusier in the 1960s. It is located at the junction of the Rhine and the Rhône and allows boats to pass from one river to the other. Impressive!

Three-Country Bridge (Passerelle des Trois Pays)

Highlight • Bridge

The three-country bridge (French Passerelle des Trois Pays), still called the Passerelle over the Rhine in the planning and construction phase, is the longest arched bridge for cyclists and pedestrians in the world. It connects the German city of Weil am Rhein in southern Baden and the French Huningue in Alsace. The name is derived from the border triangle Germany-France-Switzerland, which is less than 200 meters from the bridge. A Franco-German state treaty was specially signed before the bridge was built.
