Best places: Historical landmarks in Rüsselsheim am Main, Germany

Fortress built in 1660 with guided tours & occasional events, including theatrical performances.

👍👍 A beautifully preserved fortress with a museum and a castle café. You can also explore the fortress on foot. Drop by on a bike ride.

👍 Lost Place der interessanten Art. Vor ca. 95 Jahren sind hier nicht weniger als 50.000 Zuschauer am Oval bei Autorennen vor Ort gewesen. Und das in in den schwierigen Jahren nach dem 1. WELTKRIEG. An diesem Ort erwacht die Vergangenheit wieder. Ein merkwürdiges Gefühl.

👍 Amazing place

Oak-wood column erected in 1916 & decorated with nails donated by locals as a WWI fundraiser.

👍👍 A very interesting place. The history of the old bridge ramp is explained on text and picture boards. It is a place that takes you back to the time immediately after the Second World War and is reminiscent of the former Alexander Patch Bridge.

👍👍 Der Eisenturm ist wie der Holzturm einer der 3 erhaltenen Stadttürme der mittelalterlichen Stadtmauer von Mainz. Optisch sehen sich Holzturm und Eisenturm zum Verwechseln ähnlich, vor allem wegen der identischen Farbgebung. Der Eisenturm ist jedoch nicht sehr hoch und hat beidseitig Anbauten, währen...

👍👍 For Hessentag 2017, the old mill in Verna Park in Rüsselsheim was restored and reopened. After a fire in the 1990s, the hermitage of an artificial mill, built around 1850 and listed as a historical monument, was in danger of collapsing. Now it can be used as an event location again.
