Klingentor Tower

Highlight • Monument

The Klingentor can also be described as the entrance to the historic old town. Formerly known as the Schneller Tower, as a plank bridge for pedestrians "slid down". It gets its current name from its location in the "Clinge", which means something like rushing brook. The gate tower once served as a prison.

Bollwerk and Taubenturm

Highlight • Historical Site

Originally, a city wall connected the Schlössle with the bulwark, but the construction of the railway severed this connection. The medieval fortifications show not only the city's defences, but also that this type of building was built in an aesthetically pleasing manner. Between the bulwark and the Taubenturm there is a true-to-style open-air smithy and the women's monument.

Among the attractions of the city of Ochsenfurt is the Heimatmuseum in the castle on the Old Main Bridge. The chateau, probably built in the 14th century as part of the city's fortifications, has housed the urban collection since 1959, the foundation of which dates back to around 1900.

Old Main Bridge, Ochsenfurt

Highlight • Bridge

The Alte Mainbrücke connects the Maintal-Radweg, at the level of Kleinochsenfurt, with the city of Ochsenfurt (komoot.de/highlight/100257).

The building, which dates back to the Middle Ages, is one of Germany's most important bridges from this period and was extensively renovated between 2010 and 2012. In doing so, one has been able to preserve a large part of the historical structure - and thus also the charm of the main spanning construct.

The mehrbogige stone bridge is for cars only in the city passable. Pedestrians and cyclists, protected by a high curb and on new road surface, can stroll relaxed over the structure in both directions.

Old Main Bridge Ochsenfurt

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge, originally dating back to the 13th century, has had to be renovated several times throughout its history. The current bridge was inaugurated in 2012 and is a reconstruction based on the historical model, with the number of piers reduced from 13 to 10.

However, the overall visual impression of the bridge is disappointing. It doesn't look like a "historical model," but rather a modern, historicizing one. It's all just a bit of a facade.

I also think the curbs are too high.

Two large sandstone figures on both sides at the beginning of the bridge on the Frickenhäuser side.
