Flood Memorial July 14, 2021

Highlight • Monument

You could almost walk right past him. But when you see him, pause for a moment and remember the victims of that night, which shocked all of Germany.

Ahr River Ford

Highlight • River

The path runs a little higher directly on the Ahr. Unfortunately not a natural path, but paved (somehow paved) - nevertheless atmospheric.

The last time I …
