March 4, 2026, Aare Bridge at the Confluence with the Rhine

A very beautiful photo opportunity: the last bridge over the Aare River. Here, after 292 kilometers, the Aare flows into the Rhine.

Laufenburg was first documented in 1173, when the monastery in Säckingen granted the town as a fief to the Habsburgs. The first documented mention of Loufenberc dates back to 1207; the place name means "mountain near the waterfall, near the whirlpool, near the rapids" (Wikipedia).

Laufenburg is a small but beautifully preserved town right on the Rhine. There isn't a huge amount to see, but what there is is lovely.
