Tips from the Community

Gudi
August 23, 2025, St. John's Church (Johanniskirche) Nassau

The new Roman West organ in the Protestant St. John's Church in Nassau, built in 2019, is a clear representation of the old North German Baroque organ school in a modern context. This relatively small organ features pipe scales and characteristics that largely reflect this old school. To achieve a similar effect to a larger organ, numerous double-stop stops were incorporated.

This section of the Lahn hiking and cycling path from the monastery to Nassau cannot currently be used. A section of the path on the mountain has been broken off and trees are lying across it. You have to drive/walk the 6 km from Obernhof to Nassau along the road.

This tower is always a fascinating sight. From the top you have a great view over the Taunus and Westerwald.

On a day when the Lahn carried many segments, the small town of Dausenau seemed to have fallen out of time. Only the train station and, unfortunately, too many cars made it clear that we were not living in the late Middle Ages.
