  Water levels

When we crossed the Rhein on the little ferry to Ehrenbreitstein I noticed this little bridge where the rising water levels had been engraved into the stones since the 1800s. It's difficult to imagine the level of this seemingly calm and peaceful river ever reaching such heights!

The smaller plaques are from the more recent floods - 1980s and 90s. Another indication of global warming?
