The Wupper united by Müngsten to Solingen-Burg on the Wupper
hike in the Bergisch Land
Half an eternity, I have walked on a school trip the last time of Müngsten to Solingen-Burg, now I have the trailer for the documentary " Pina " encouraged to visit the bridge Müngstener again. Here, in the course of the years, very much. As part of the Regionale 2006 (a work program for the promotion of regional structural change), the cities of Remscheid, Solingen and Wuppertal at the foot of the famous, 107-meter-high railway bridge, the bridge park developed Müngsten, which was designed by the Atelier Loidl realized landscape architects from Berlin . Cars may not run at Bridge Park, Parking for visitors is located at the junction of national road 74 on State Road 229, between Morsbachtalstraße and Solinger road. From here it passes under the Morsbach along the B 229 and reaches the Wupper and listed Napoleon Bridge, also in the framework of Regionale 2006 has been completely renovated.
viewed from the bridge along the Wupper south, so you can see on a hill on the Diederich Remscheid city temple, a pavilion with a seven-sided shape.
first since last year in the bridge Müngsten the new restaurant "House Müngsten" (café, bistro and a restaurant) in operation, in a striking building with large windows and a paneled with COR-TEN steel facade is located. Pool 2 of the architects building was realized in 2010 by the Ministry of Economy, Energy, Construction, Housing and Transport of North Rhine-Westphalia in cooperation with the Chamber of Architects North Rhine-Westphalia awarded the "award of exemplary buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia".
artist Ulrike Böhme (born 1952 in Braunschweig) has carried out Müngsten bridge the so-called "Müngstener conundrum." It is an art project, formulated by the steel plates to 10 puzzles. The Bridge Park is spread the same platforms are again. Once you enter this, it is said a voice, the solution of the puzzle, and to a story.
Müngstener The bridge is 107 meters above the Wupper Germany's highest railway bridge over the railway line of Wuppertal-Barmen top to Solingen is run. Until 1918, she was wearing in honor of Kaiser Wilhelm I called Kaiser-Wilhelm-bridge, after the end of the monarchy, she was named after the now-defunct settlement Müngsten. The bridge was built in 1893-1897 by Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nürnberg AG (MAN), Gustavsburg, which was led at the time of architect Anton von Rieppel (born April 17, 1852 in Kemnath, † 31 January 1926 in Nuremberg) . The partial red color of the steel arch bridge is due to oxidation, is purely and simply to rust.
a plaque under the bridge is clear that the bridge commissioned by the Royal Railway Administration Elberfeld MAN in order and the main arch for the first time in the open porch, with no more frames, was constructed. 5,000 tons of steel sections were used for the iron structure with a total length of 465 meters, a legend, one of the 950 000 rivets is gold.
at the Transporter Bridge, a highlight of the bridge park is the possibility of the opposite shore to Remscheid city to afflict, and then the road to Castle continue on the Wupper. But there are also Solinger city a track, but to overcome to some meters in altitude. Not for nothing is one way in the Bergisch land. At the meadow Waldschänke Kotten the possibility to rest. On an iron bridge crosses the river Wupper, the South leads the way on to Burg on the Wupper.
In Solingen Burg on the Wupper district is no longer amortized powered trolley bus hub to see that today only for special tours of the Museum Solingen trolleybus e. V. is used. In this Year, the historic trolley 59 in the context of the special trips "Knights Tour" on 10 April, 8 May, 12 June, 10 July, 14 August, 11 September and 9 October turned on the turntable.
The independent municipality until 1975, Burg on the Wupper consists of the settlements under castle and upper castle. Lower castle is situated on the Wupper, Upper Castle is situated 100 meters above the castle. Whom the rise of the lower castle after castle top is difficult, of the lock can also be reached by a funicular railway which in winter is only open on weekends in operation.
one has mastered the rise of the lower castle in Upper Castle, can be seen on Germany's longest natural parent super bench with back from a piece of 22.22 meters and a weight of 1,000 kg at Castle Wall Castle Castle in close proximity to the mountain station of the cable car to rest. The idea came from Klaus and Klaus Riemann Beautiful white, the realization was elaborate and expensive.
Schloss Burg is a reconstructed castle, originally early 12th Century by Adolf II of Berg built. It Bergische museum with the great hall, the ancestral portrait gallery, the bower and the chapel.
battery tower in the "Memorial of the German East - Monument of displacement in Europe" can be found. At the battery clock tower and the chateau of Castle Castle is an hour bell.
For the return of the castle on the Wupper Müngsten after I have chosen the path along the riverbank on Wupper in Remscheid page. This again provides new views of the Müngstener bridge however, leads from the branch to the Transporter Bridge and uphill.
Did you pass the bridge, the road later in 1901 leading to the temple built Diederich. The viewing pavilion in the Gothic style was founded by August Diederichs. The pavilion is indeed on Remscheid city, but it is one of the city of Solingen.
Would you drive a train on the bridge Müngstener, this is usually the stopping point Solingen-Schaberg possible. Here the local train runs on schedule 47 ("The Müngstener"). From the bridge park is via a marked path (as a friendly "game path" laid out) to the station Solingen-Schaberg. But since the 19th November 2010 is locked Müngstener the bridge. When re-run trains over the bridge, no one knows for sure. The German Railways plans to invest over the next five years 30 million euros in the rehabilitation of basic Müngstener bridge. Work will focus will be the renovation of the 28 bridge bearings, and a comprehensive corrosion protection.
