Villa on Rathausstraße, Philippsthal

Highlight • Monument

I was immediately taken with this villa on Rathausstrasse in Philippsthal and had to be immortalized in a picture.
Everything is symmetrical about the building: the stairs, the windows, the roof design - and right at the top, in the middle of the roof a tower with a clock - great.

Memorial and border tower at the Bridge of Unity (Werra Bridge)

Highlight • Monument

The German-German history must not be forgotten. Therefore, it is important for the coming generations to receive testimonies from this time. In the tower, which is also used as an observation tower, information boards are distributed on the floors, which describes how the object was used and how the life of the citizens in the restricted area was once. Where the key to the tower is available is described on the door.

Bridge of Unity (Werrabrücke Vacha)

Highlight • Bridge

The Werra Bridge Vacha, also known as the Bridge of Unity since 1990, is a 225-meter-long stone arch bridge from the Middle Ages that connects Vacha in Thuringia with Philippsthal in Hesse and spans the Werra. At the time of the division of Germany, the bridge was located directly on the inner-German border, which made it a symbol of the reunification of Germany after 1990.
The 225-meter-long bridge is made of natural stone masonry and has eleven arches in the foreland area and three arches over the Werra. The clear widths are around 5 m in the foreland area and a maximum of 9.6 m in the river area, with pillar axis distances of no more than 14 m. The width between the parapets is 5.5 m.
Source: Wikipedia

At the beginning of the 20th century, the structure was part of Reichsstrasse 84. In the spring of 1945, during the Second World War, two arches were blown up and rebuilt in 1950/1951 with reinforced concrete and a sandstone wall cladding.
Today the structure is used as a footbridge and cycle path.
Since 2003, the ecumenical pilgrimage route Görlitz-Vacha has led over the Werra bridge. This is where the Rhönklub-Jakobsweg through the Rhön towards Fulda connects.
