Wilhelmsbrücke with Towers

Highlight • Bridge

The Wilhelmsbrücke with Fischerturm completed in 1904. The far above
sculptor Ludwig Cauer, who is well-known outside the city limits, created the tower relief,
reminiscent of the local fishermen living in this part of town.

Historic Old Town, Bad Kreuznach

Highlight • Historical Site

Old new town or historic old town? There can be confusion if you are not from Bad Kreuznach. In Bad Kreuznach, however, one thing is clear: the new town is the old town, i.e. the historical center of Bad Kreuznach.
This oddity is historical. Originally there were two settlements on the left and right of the Nahe, which were repeatedly devastated by armed conflicts. At the beginning of the 13th century, Count Gottfried von Sponheim had the Kauzenburg built above the north bank of the Nahe. The construction of a new city began, the "Neustadt".
It covers the area between the Alter Nahebrücke and Hofgartenstraße as well as between the palace gardens and the Stadthaus. It is characterized by its marketplaces, romantic half-timbered houses, narrow streets and striking monuments.
Again and again there was and is a dispute about the name: "Neustadt" in the sense of the proper name or "Altstadt" in today's sense of a city function. In April 2013, the Bad Kreuznach City Council officially put an end to the discussions by deciding to name it "Kreuznacher Neustadt - Historischer Stadtkern".

Landgrafen Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

In the years 1846-50 the stone Landgrave Bridge replaced the old Nahe overpass; The railway age began here in 1859, especially when the Glanal Railway, the so-called "Strategic Railway", ran up here from 1896. After the Second World War, as everywhere else, agriculture that had prevailed up to that point declined; Today Staudernheim is more of a residential community, from which many citizens drive to work in other places every day.
