References to the river are prevalent in art, literature, and sculptures across the world, a testament to the impact of the river. Eternalized in german folklore with works like "Die Wacht am Rhein," the river is a symbol of German nationalism. From the Roman era to date, Rhein continues to influence lives and culture.
