Bingerbrück

Its name is part of a legend in which the villainous archbishop Hatto of Mainz plays a major role.

But the mice crossed the Rhine to the island, penetrated the tower, and devoured the bishop alive.

Ruins of the cellar remained as the foundation of the former Herter-Villa and were finally destroyed during the construction of the railway.

After the Congress of Vienna, the Nahe became the border between Prussia's Rhine Province and the Grand Duchy of Hesse.

The Nahe bridge became an important customs point, contributing to the rapid growth of Bingerbrück.
