Vinnbrück, Historical defensive structure in Krefeld-Hüls, Germany.
The Vinnbrück spans across 80,000 square meters, featuring remnants of defense trenches and a former small reservoir near the B9 federal highway.
The Treaty of Vinnbrück, signed in 1284 between Archbishop Siegfried of Westerburg and Count Rainald I of Guelders, influenced the Battle of Worringen in 1288.
The memorial site, designed by artist Lutz Weynans, stands at a side path to the B9 highway in the Tönisberg district.
The structure remains partially accessible, with agricultural fields surrounding the area where the former fortification and mill once operated.
Local residents refer to the former fortification as 'Die Stadt' (The City), a name preserved in historical maps of the region.
