Cycling on a historic road. Previously with the Trabi, today with the carbon racer - so almost with the same chassis material :-)

Great car-free connection between Eilenburg and Wölpern, with a free bike course through the narrow barriers.

On April 18, 1945, at the end of the Second World War, a crowd gathered in front of the town hall; those present demanded that the town be surrendered without a fight to the Americans besieging it from the west. The mayor at the time, Gerhard Thiede, who had advocated a surrender with the military leadership, could only announce to the citizens that the negotiations had failed. The angry crowd was then ordered by the police to leave the square. After the Americans' ultimatum had expired, the shelling began on the same day.[5] In the devastating artillery battle that followed, the market square and town hall were hit on April 22, 1945.[6] After that, only the outer walls of the town hall remained standing. View of the Eilenburg market square rebuilt after the Second World War with the town hall at blue hour, 2010 As a sign of a new beginning, the reconstruction of the town hall was to begin quickly. The city's building authority submitted a design that envisaged an extension towards Rinckartstrasse, doubling the size of the building with a symmetrical market square façade. Since a call for tenders among local architects was unsuccessful, the Eilenburg magistrate decided on 24 September 1946 to rebuild the town hall in its old form. Since the town hall had already been unable to meet the increased space requirements before its destruction, the magistrate agreed in December 1946 to add a second floor to the building, but while retaining its Renaissance character.[7] Construction, which began in 1946, could not be completed until 1949 due to problems with the procurement of materials. The topping-out ceremony for the two-storey roof structure was in May 1948. The remains of the outer walls were left as they were, except for the dilapidated east gable. The remaining masonry was built using knocked-down bricks. The necessary roof tiles, rafter nails, screws and anchors were made by hand.[8] From 1992 to 1994, the Eilenburg town hall was completely renovated. The town hall now houses the city administration with the mayor's office, the registry office, the citizens' office and the town hall cellar. Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rathaus_Eilenburg
