View of the River Erft

Very nice area. However, it takes a while after the rain until the unpaved ground is dry again.

Paffendorf Sighs Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The new bridge turned out great.
The old bridge consisted of the remains of a weir and was very narrow. This one is visually very striking and I think that it would also be a bit wider.
