Wow this is really interesting. Can’t say I’ve ever seen locks used this way!

Hi Lily, thanks for the link! I agree, I love finding something that isn’t listed in the guidebooks :)

I saw these this morning and did a quick Google to find out more. Thanks for the background and the lovely photos- I shall link to them on my blog! I love that some traditions and pieces of cultural art don’t get shouted about in guidebooks- it makes them so much more special to stumble upon.

My wife and I were in Koeln this past weekend for the P!nk concert. We went across the bridge to get the traditional shot of the Dom and got quite a surprise. This bridge was the highlight of my weekend in Koeln. Fantastic, a must see! Plan on spending some time there as there are so many interesting locks. I’ll be posting photos of it on my site soon. Next time we go back we plan on having a lock for us and each of our children to place on the bridge.

*GASP* I was in Koln last year but didn’t know about this! I plan to visit sometime this year and I’m going to get a lock engraved for me and my hubby and go there so we can put one on! Thanks for sharing, I’d probably never have known about this without you :) I’m such a romantic sap!

On arriving at the bridge from our hotel, the site was quite incredible. This collection is very impressive and taking into account the sheer number of locks, one would suggest you hurry if you wish to find space for your own.

I love your photos! It really is a strange idea to put up those locks. It seems like you took some time for the close inspection.

Keep blogging!
