Cycling

At Kleinblittersdorf train station, between the level crossing and the Friendship Bridge, an imposing Francis turbine wheel stands on a pedestal under an old chestnut tree. This wheel must have once been installed in a mill that stood at the Kleinblittersdorf barrage on the Saar. It appears that the mill building had to make way for the bypass road, which now runs directly past the barrage.
