Swabian Rezat
The Swabian Rezat (german: Schwäbische Rezat) is a 33.3-kilometre-long river in southern Germany (Bavaria). It is the southern, right source river of the Rednitz. It rises in the Franconian Jura hills, near Weißenburg in Bayern. It flows generally north through the towns Weißenburg in Bayern, Ellingen and Pleinfeld. Together with the Franconian Rezat, it forms the Rednitz in Georgensgmünd. In its upper course the Rezat is close to the continental water shed between Rhine and Danube. In the 8th century Charlemagne tried to build a canal between Rezat and Altmühl which were only 3 km away from each other. It's not clear if it was finished and used for a short period or not. Its remains can be seen as "Fossa Carolina" or "Karlsgraben" near Treuchtlingen.

Kreisstraße
A Kreisstraße (literally: "district road" or "county road") is a class of road in Germany. It carries traffic between the towns and villages within a '' Kreis'' or district or between two neighbouring districts. In importance, the ''Kreisstraße'' ranks below a ''Landesstraße'' (or, in Bavaria and Saxony, a ''Staatstraße'', i.e. a state road), but above a ''Gemeindestraße'' or "local road". ''Kreisstraßen'' are usually the responsibility of the respective rural district (''Landkreis'') or urban district (''Kreisfreie Stadt''), with the exception of high streets through larger towns and villages. Kreisstraßen are usually dual-lane roads but, in a few cases, can be built as limited-access dual carriageways in densely populated areas. Numbering Unlike local roads (''Gemeindestraßen'') the ''Kreisstraßen'' are invariably numbered, but their numbering is not shown on signs. The abbreviation is a prefixed capital letter K followed by a serial number. In most states the car n ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
