Cancel (Munich)
The Abrechen was a hydraulic structure to catch wood from wood in Munich .
location
The Abrechen was in Lehel at the junction of the Trift Canal from the Isar . It led from a point that is today between Mariannenbrücke and Praterwehrbrücke , from the left bank of the Isar over the Great Isar to the Isar Island, later called Prater Island.
history
The Abrechen was built in 1582–1587. It served as a collecting grid for firewood, which was felled up the Isar and transported down the Isar by means of a wooden drift. The wood that was caught in the rake was pulled into the Trift Canal and floated on to the ducal wood garden and stored there. Wood intended for construction, on the other hand, was tied together to make rafts, which docked on the Unteren Lände and were taken apart there.
After the construction of the tubular bridge , the demolition was also used to lead the water pipe from the Brunnhaus in Haidhausen's Brunnthal to the residence over the Great Isar.
Like the tubular bridge, the Abrechen was also provided with a footbridge, which was passable for pedestrians, but whose access was blocked. In 1744 Austrian soldiers managed to get over the Röhrenbrücke and Abbruch to the left side of the Isar and thus also to conquer the Isar Bridge.
In 1814/15 the Abbruch was demolished and rebuilt. The storage function was carried downstream built next Prater weir bridge over. The new Abrechen was a wooden walkway with seven yokes. It had a movable rake that could be adjusted depending on the amount of wood and the water level.
After the Trift ceased in 1870, the Abreching facility was finally demolished.
