Sausteg Bridge over the Nidda River

Highlight • Bridge

Can you sit on the bench or is it private?

Assenheim Castle

Highlight • Castle

Because of the jungle you almost miss the small bridge to the privately inhabited castle. The main building looks almost Italian, especially from the river. Great ensemble from different centuries. It is essential to drive through the little dangling completely.
