Location of the city of Bingen am Rhein in the Mainz-Bingen district | ||
Bingen am Rhein is a large town in the Mainz-Bingen district in Rhineland-Palatinate . The original name of the settlement was Bingium, Celtic word possibly for "hole in the rock", name for the shoal behind the mouse tower, known as Binger Loch . Bingen was the starting point for Ausoniusstrasse , a Roman military road that connected the city with Trier . Bingen is known, among other things, for the story of the Binger Mouse Tower , in which the Archbishop of Mainz Hatto was supposedly eaten by mice . In 2008, Bingen hosted the third Rhineland-Palatinate state horticultural show after Kaiserslautern and Trier.

history
Panorama by Jakob Becker 1833
The area of today's Bingen was settled in ancient times due to its convenient location at the confluence of the Nahe and Rhine rivers and at the entrance of the Rhine into the narrow valley. The village name is the first time in the form "Bingium" in the work of the Roman writer Tacitus (early 2nd century) in the context of the Batavian testified and the urindogermanische root "bhengo-m" (town on the refraction of the river) is recycled. There was probably already a Celtic settlement on site. After the Roman conquest, Roman troops were stationed at the site and built a wood and earth fort. A wooden bridge was built over the Nahe, over which the Roman Rhine Valley Road ran and the remains of which were dendrochronologically dated to the year 77 AD. The Christian community of Bingen is proven to be in the 4th or 5th century; The basilica of St. Martin may have emerged from the church built at that time . Two Christian tombstones from the 5th and 6th centuries have been preserved, that of a Mauricia (walled in the crypt of St. Martin) and that of a priest named Aetherius (found east of the city in the ancient burial ground, today in the Basilica of St. Martin) .
After the fall of the Upper German-Raetian Limes , the city became a Franconian royal estate in the fifth century and was donated to Archbishop Willigis of Mainz in 983 by the Veronese donation from Otto II . Under Otto III. came the Binger Kammerforst. Under Willigis, the stone Drusus Bridge was built a little further up .
The Binger strived for independence again and again, which in 1165 led to the destruction in disputes between the Archbishop of Mainz and the Kaiser. In the 13th century Bingen was a member of the Rhenish Association of Cities . The construction of Klopp Castle in the middle of the 13th century can also be seen in this context. One last attempt was the unsuccessful participation in the Peasants' War in 1525. The Mainz Cathedral Chapter acquired the city in two halves in 1424 and 1438 from the Archbishop . Bingen remained under its administration until the end of the 18th century. Like many cities in the valley, Bingen suffered from several city fires and wars.
After French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine in 1794 , the city belonged to the French Donnersberg department from 1798 to 1814 and was the chief town ( chief lieu ) of the canton of Bingen . In 1816, after the Congress of Vienna , the city came to the Grand Duchy of Hesse , the current district of Bingerbrück to the Rhine Province of the Kingdom of Prussia . This made it a border town until the German Empire was founded in 1871. Since 1835, Bingen was also the seat of the Bingen district .
In 1929 Büdesheim was incorporated into a district of Bingen; Dietersheim, Gaulsheim and Kempten followed in 1939.
On November 10, 1938, the New Synagogue , built in 1905, was set on fire by SA men and Nazi supporters. It burned down to the surrounding walls. During World War II , Bingen was repeatedly targeted by USAAF air strikes . Above all, the marshalling yard in the Bingerbrück district was attacked. On September 13, 1944, a crew member of an American bomber who had previously been shot down was shot dead by a member of the SA on the street. At the end of the war in 1945, US Army troops moved into the city.
On June 7, 1969, the previously independent community of Bingerbrück with 3655 inhabitants was incorporated. On January 1, 1970, at their request, the state government raised the city of Bingen to a large district city . On April 22, 1972 the municipalities Dromersheim (1221 E.) and Sponsheim (665 E.) followed. The city has had the addition of "am Rhein" to its name since July 1, 1982.
For the State Garden Show 2008 in Bingen, the Rhine facilities in the city underwent extensive modernization.

The region is economically shaped by viticulture, especially since four wine-growing regions ( Rheinhessen , Mittelrhein , Nahe and Rheingau ) meet in Bingen . The city is also the namesake for the area of Bingen in wine law.
Other industries that had previously settled in Bingen due to the port have migrated over the years. Today's service industries are mainly located in the industrial area (motorway exit Bingen-Ost / Kempten / industrial area) and in the Scharlachberg business park.
Tourism also plays an important role.

traffic
Rail transport
There are several train stations and stops in the urban area of Bingen am Rhein .
The Bingen (Rhein) Hauptbahnhof station is located in the Bingerbrück district and used to be called Bingerbrück . The Nahetalbahn route in the direction of Bad Kreuznach and Idar-Oberstein ends at this station ; the left Rhine route between Mainz and Cologne runs through the train station. All local trains on these two routes stop at the main station, and the main station is also a stop for individual IC and EC trains.
The Bingen-Stadt train station - formerly Bingen (Rhein) train station - is located two kilometers east of the Nahe, directly opposite the historic harbor crane . Only the local rail transport stops here, but it has better connections to the city's public bus transport .
The emergence of two train stations is historical, as today's Bingen main train station used to be a Prussian border train station, while the city train station belonged to the Hessian Ludwig Railway .
There is also a stop in Bingen-Gaulsheim, which is only used by the regional train line RB 26 between Mainz and Cologne.
The Drususbrücke stops on the Bingen Hbf – Bad Kreuznach line and the Bingen-Kempten and Büdesheim-Dromersheim stops on the Alzey – Bingen Stadt line are no longer served.
From 1906 there was a partly as a small railway , partly as a tram licensed operation, which was called AG Binger branch lines . The lines connected the city's train station, Bingerbrück train station and Büdesheim . A year later the route from Büdesheim to Dietersheim was extended. The connection to Bingerbrück was given up in 1922, and the rest of the service stopped on October 22, 1955.
In 1915, after a long planning period, the 1175 meter long Hindenburg Bridge was opened over the Rhine. It connected Bingen with the right stretch of the Rhine near Rüdesheim. It was not rebuilt after it was destroyed in World War II.
Road traffic
Bingen is in close proximity to the highways 60 and 61 , which are connected by the federal highway 9 . At the beginning of the 19th century the Route de Charlemagne , today's L 419, was laid out.
Transportation
City buses run on seven lines in Bingen. There are also four special school bus routes and one calling line. The bus lines are operated by Stadtwerke Bingen am Rhein .
Shipping
Only passenger traffic is important. The freight port is abandoned. The former winter harbor is now a marina.
There are piers for the Cologne-Düsseldorfer , Bingen-Rüdesheimer passenger shipping and the Rössler line. The Rhine ferry Bingen – Rüdesheim offers a permanent connection with the neighboring town of Rüdesheim am Rhein as a passenger ferry and as a motor vehicle ferry . (see list of Rhine ferries ).
Bingen was a pilot station until the end of the 1970s .
Biking and hiking trails
As the gateway to the Upper Middle Rhine Valley UNESCO World Heritage Site , Bingen is connected by various cycling and hiking trails . The Rhine and Nahe cycle paths meet in the Rhine -Nahe triangle near Bingen; The Hiwwel route also leads from here through the Rheinhessen hill country to Worms .
Bingen is also a hub in the Rhineland-Palatinate network of hiking trails. Both the Soonwaldsteig and the RheinBurgenWeg, the counterpart to the Rheinsteig on the left bank of the Rhine , have their start and end points here.
Public facilities

Kulturufer Bingen
State Garden Show Bingen 2008
For the Rhineland-Palatinate State Horticultural Show from April 18 to October 19, 2008, the banks of the Rhine between the car ferry pier and the former tracks in Bingerbrück at the main train station (formerly Bingerbrück station) were completely redesigned.
The event was carried out along the banks of the Rhine over a length of 2.8 km and 24 hectares of exhibition space. With 1.3 million visitors, the expected number of at least 600,000 people was significantly exceeded. The three sub-areas are still fenced, but accessible free of charge.
Reuse
The former site of the State Garden Show Bingen 2008 has been marketed as Kulturufer Bingen since the beginning of 2010 . The aim of the Kulturufers Bingen is to establish the place with its scenic, architectural, horticultural and cultural attractions as a destination for cultural travelers. The Kulturufer Bingen consists of the parts of the area Hafenpark / Gartenstadt, Hindenburglage, Rhein-Nahe-Eck and Park am Mäuseturm.
In the Hafenpark / Gartenstadt area are u. a. to find the partnership gardens, the industrial crane and the Japanese cherry orchard. The old Rhine crane from 1487 stands at the transition to the Hindenburg complex.
The Hindenburg complex is a listed park with old trees. There you will find the former customs office, the English rose garden, the “Rheinkahn” playground, the vinotheque, the poets' cabinets and the pier.
In the Rhein-Nahe-Eck section is the Rheintal-Kongress-Zentrum, the Museum am Strom with the departments “Hildegard von Bingen”, “Roman Medical Set”, “Rhine Romanticism” and “City History”, and the Hildegarten.
The park at the Mäuseturm offers large lawns, sports fields, a skater track, the adventure playground "Rhine to Play", the signal box Mensch | Natur | Technik as well as various event areas.
