Part 6

The door #4 and thru it the wall #5 with the wagon.

The door #4 and the wooden bridge above the way to the main entrance of the castle.

The wall #5 which is the shelter of the wagon.
Note that the wooden door has been removed, only the hinges are remaining.
Note also the video camera and the iron stair between the rails.

Interesting vue from the top to the bottom (Nonnberg) thru the walls #3, #2 and #1. Thru the opening of the wall #1 you can see the rails in the meadow of the Nonnberg.
This vue shows the difference of gradient from the bottom and the top.
It shows also that the part with the lower gradient in not in the same axle as the other part of the elevator.
Note also the iron stair between the rails and the inclined roller, in the openining of wall #2, which proves that the tracks are turning to the left.
