The Kunitz House Bridge, newly built in 2012, is beautifully restored. Inside, there's an information panel about the bridge's history. The square in front of the bridge is a lovely place to take a break.

The Dornburg Castles are always a first choice for a sunny tour, and I drove this route today because all the paths are asphalted - a mud-free tour with pure sunshine. ☀️☀️☀️

It should only be a few rolls from the bakery, then it was just so nice outside, so I drove back home via the Dornburg castles. But at the top there was a pretty tight headwind, so I had to kick hard. 🌬️🚴‍♀️🌤️
Have a nice Weekend.

Wind from the SW was announced, the direction of travel quickly changed and the wind came from behind on the open area. 😁 This is how it worked today.
At the castles we had coffee together with @Günni.... We sat comfortably in the sun, enjoyed the view over the Saale valley and talked.
Just beautiful.
