history

The Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal had passed Eggolsheim to the west as early as the 1840s . After damage in the Second World War , it was abandoned around 1950, also due to the no longer up-to-date transport capacities. In the 1960s it was filled in between Nuremberg and Erlangen as a route to the federal motorway 73 , completely built over and has since been dry near Eggolsheim; the planning and construction activities for the new sewer construction began. In 1966, the new sewer construction reached Eggolsheim and the now abandoned oil port went into operation. With a port basin measuring 125 × 25 meters, it was the only real port on the canal, along with the port of Nuremberg , that had a berth that was structurally separated from the fairway. However, handling there came to a standstill again in the 1980s when the canal had reached Fürth . For many years the facilities at the oil port remained in ruins; meanwhile they have been dismantled and the driveway has been rounded off. A siding to the railway line from Nuremberg to Bamberg , which runs 600 meters to the east, was originally planned and would have been very easy to establish, but this was not implemented due to a lack of demand.

Commerce and infrastructure

The WSA site with a quay length of 70 meters is in operation today; only operating resources of the canal are handled there, icebreakers are parked, etc.

Commercial cargo handling only takes place on the Liapor premises. There is a somewhat outdated eight-ton loading facility on 110 meters of quays. Electricity, water and sewage pumps are available; on-site customs clearance is not provided. A motorized goods ship with a length of 110 meters can be moored and loaded there, but with only a limited draft as the water depth does not correspond to the fairway. There is a berth without supply and disposal connections for commercial vessels up to 70 meters in length on the WSA site and on the outer site of the oil port . However, these may only be used in the event of short waiting times or malfunctions in the sewer. There is an unsecured ship turning area between the WSA-Lände and the Liapor-Lände near Pautzfeld, in which watercraft up to a length of 110 meters could turn around if necessary. Passenger shipping is not planned at any of the three facilities in Eggolsheim.

traffic

The Eggolsheimer ports are accessible via the state roads 2264, ST 2244 and the district roads FO 4 and FO 24. There is a driveway to the federal motorway 73 about four kilometers away .

Others

  • In 2009 the former oil port of Eggolsheim was one of the locations where the film The Last Silence, based on a crime thriller by Jan Costin Wagner , directed by the scriptwriter Baran bo Odar .
  • On the night of May 21, 2019, a river cruise ship with 183 passengers collided at the Pautzfelder Bridge because the steering position was not lowered in time. This was knocked over in the impact and the ship was unable to maneuver. It had to be anchored in the shipping channel and property damage also occurred on the bridge.
