The formation rises 194 metres (636ft) above the Elbe River. Originally constructed with wood in 1824, the bridge linked several rocks. In 1851, the bridge was replaced with a sandstone bridge. With seven arches, measuring 76 metres long, visitors are treated to breathtaking views. The Bastei has welcomed visitors for over 200 years.

Kromlau, Saxony, Germany
The autumn colours dance in a reflection of the Rakotz Bridge in Kromlau, Saxony, Germany, in our #SightSeeingSunday image of the week. Built in 1860, the bridge is manmade, including the jagged, rocky spires on either end of the bridge and the pointed rocks in the Lake. The bridge is often described through the years as a bridge that belongs in a fairytale. However, the bridge is also known as the Devil’s Bridge. Many of these types were built throughout Europe during the medieval times.
The bridges are masonry and are so spectacular and challenging that it was thought only the devil could have helped with the construction. As the legend goes, the devil helped in exchange for the soul of the first human who crossed the bridge. Each bridge has its own unique folktale.
Have a magical Sunday!
