Love Locks by kjarn

Love Locks

Apparently there are over 40,000 love locks attached to the Hohenzollern Bridge in Cologne, Germany.
Wow! It seems red is the magic colour in Germany.

My goodness. So many. That must add a lot of weight to the railings.

@wakelys over 2 tons apparently

Wow! You just hope the bridge can take that extra weight. I have heard of other bridges where they have removed the locks before the bridges fell down!

I love the way you captured the train on this famous bridge as well!

@pamknowler apparently they get regular engineer checks and the bridge remains safe for now. Thank you for the fav Pam

Love locks are a nice idea but they do a lot of damage and have to be removed sometimes.

Wow- that is a lot of locks! I can't remember where at the moment but there was a bridge somewhere in Europe that was so overloaded with locks they had to cut them all off. The bridge was sinking from the collective weight of them. I like how you've got both the locks and the train in this picture.

Great shot! They look so nice. It was done in other cities throughout Europe.

@corinnec we have it on bridges in Australia too but nowhere near as many as this. Thank you for the fav Corinne

Wow that’s a lot. I know they started taking them off the bridges in Paris, because of the weight.
July 27th, 2023  
Oh goodness, mad!
July 28th, 2023  
That's a lot of love! :)
Nicely timed to have the red train in the background

@4rky that was a pure fluke 🤣. Thank you for the fav

As Carole said that’s a lot, in a lot of German cities there are signs not to put the locks on the bridges.
