Cable Stayed bridge Main-Danube Canal
The cable stayed bridge crossing the Main-Danube Canal is a modern structure with distinctive cables fanning out from its towers to support the roadway. It serves both road traffic and pedestrian and cycling paths across the waterway.
The bridge was built as part of the Main-Danube Canal project, which aimed to link European waterways. It represents a key connection point between two major river systems on the continent.
The bridge is easily accessible for cars and is clearly marked for pedestrians and cyclists to cross. The best time to cross is during daylight when you can see the structure and surroundings clearly.
The bridge demonstrates an elegant engineering solution for crossing a modern waterway and shows how contemporary engineering was applied to European canal infrastructure. Its cable design is a visual marker of late 20th-century innovation in infrastructure planning.

Nuremberg holds layers of history within its walls. The city's medieval heart, surrounded by ancient fortifications, tells stories of craft and commerce from centuries past. Stone churches still stand where they were built in the 14th century, and narrow streets wind between half-timbered houses that seem frozen in time. But this city also carries the weight of the 20th century. Visitors walk through spaces that witnessed both the darkest chapters of history and the trials that followed, making Nuremberg a place where you confront the past directly. The Old Town draws you in with its cobblestone squares, Gothic spires, and the sound of fountains that have flowed for generations. You can see where leather workers once lived and crafted their trade, where markets still happen today much as they did hundreds of years ago. Churches like St. Lawrence hold treasures within—carved wooden altarpieces and glass windows that survived wars and destruction. Museums here gather millions of objects that trace how German culture developed from its earliest days to modern times. What makes Nuremberg distinct is how openly it addresses all of its history. The Nazi Congress Hall, never completed, now houses a museum that documents how a nation lost itself. The Palace of Justice stands as witness to the trials that sought accountability. Walking through Nuremberg means encountering both the beauty of medieval tradition and the reality of historical reckoning, in the same afternoon.
