Römerkran

A treadwheel, or treadmill, is a form of engine typically powered by humans. It may resemble a water wheel in appearance, and can be worked either by a human treading paddles set into its circumference (treadmill), or by a human or animal standing inside it (treadwheel). These devices are no longer used for power or punishment, and the term "treadmill" has come to mean an exercise machine for running, walking or other exercises in place.

The name Dietkirchen Bonn stands for several terms that have played an important role in the history of today's federal city of Bonn and its region. Dietkirche was not only the name of the first Christian church, but also the origin of an early settlement that had formed around the church. Dietkirchen also became the name of the later parish district (Sprengel) and also the name of a monastery founded near the church, from which the free-noble monastery of St. Peter in Dietkirchen later emerged. Dietkirchen Abbey was one of the first religious-female convents in the Bonn area, along with the monastic foundations in Vilich (978) and Schwarzrheindorf (1151). Dietkirchen Abbey was dissolved in 1802 under French administration and its property confiscated.
