A completely different bench. But good for resting. Unfortunately without a roof.

A really beautiful old town with many great old half-timbered houses. Those who love half-timbered houses are in the right place here. The Fulda flows along the town.

Pretty little church 🤩 Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information about it.

somewhat hidden and difficult to reach - an old half-timbered church in Melsungen near the Fulda riverbank

Very nice idea for a bench - right on the banks of the Fulda.

🖐️ Melsungen. Always happy to go back. From Witzenhausen, you can even reach it in the morning (7:37 a.m.) by a "through" train. You "simply stay" on this train at Kassel Central Station and then continue towards Bad Hersfeld, arriving in Melsungen at the station at 9:05 a.m. You can also get off at the Bartenwetzer Bridge. Then you're right in the middle of the city and, if you travel on a Thursday, which I highly recommend, in the middle of a beautiful market that leaves nothing to be desired. And why is this a cycling highlight? If you've only ever taken the train? Quite simply. After a refreshment at the market, the return journey follows the "water," now by bike/e-bike for about 85 km, first along the Fulda River to Kassel, then on to Hann. Münden, and then, changing direction, along the Werra River to Witzenhausen. And if you can't take it any longer, there are a few "milk cans" along the way where you can take the train again. 😉
