Prüm Bridge in Holsthum

Highlight • Bridge

Near the confluence of the Enz and Prüm rivers, the L4 country road crosses the Prüm. From here, you have a pleasant view of the river.

As of May 2025, it looked almost as if the wigwams were no longer in use. Everything was pretty overgrown.

In the 18th century, the Austrian administration promoted the construction of glassworks in the Duchy of Luxembourg. In 1796, the glassworks was founded by Johann Dominik Laeis. Around 50 people were employed here, producing glass balloons, window glass, bottles and fine crystal glasses. There were two production periods from 1774 to 1811/12 and from 1843 to 1850/51. Production was finally stopped around 1850/51.

Remains of the large round building with a diameter of 17m in which the glass furnace was located can still be seen. The melting furnace is said to have had a diameter of 5m. The wood for the furnace was brought to the furnaces by carts through a long corridor and the ash was transported out on the opposite side.

Other buildings in the complex are the grinding shop with the narrow windows, behind each of which there was a grinding or cutting bench that was powered by a water wheel located in the neighboring mill wheel building. Also preserved are an administration building and the glass master’s house.
