In the Grand Ried, the Rhine is not just a border: it is an artery of life, a common thread that connects landscapes, people and history.
Between France and Germany, it shapes a generous nature, a remarkable technical heritage and a place of constantly renewed exchanges.
From Gerstheim to Marckolsheim, via Rhinau, let yourself be surprised by the richness of this majestic river.
In Gerstheim, the locks and the fish pass bear witness to the subtle balance between navigation, biodiversity and human development.
More to the south, in Rhinau and Marckolsheim, the locks impress with their size, while thehydroelectric power plants, true industrial cathedrals, produce sustainable energy in the heart of a preserved environment.
An ambitious project...
Currently, an ambitious project is underway: the construction of new fish passes in Rhinau and Marckolsheim.
These exemplary developments will soon allow migratory fish to cross the Rhine structures, thus promoting the return of exceptional aquatic biodiversity.
Along its banks, along cycle paths or during a river cruise, the Rhine reveals a thousand faces: a land of nature, memory and modernity. Here, water unites, nourishes and inspires. Come and feel this unique energy, where man and nature move forward together.
