aRosa Mia
The 124 meter long river passenger cruise ship aRosa Mia struck a bridge across the Danube at the Jochenstein lock. The aRosa Mia was on a scheduled cruise from Budapest to Passau when it arrived at the lock. As the vessel was departing from the lock, its wheelhouse still raised above the deck. As the passenger ship passed under the bridge over the lock, the wheelhouse smashed into the bridge and was destroyed. No reports of injuries. The disabled aRosa Mia was moored a short distance along the river shoreline. The 192 passengers on board were taken ashore and continued their journey by coach. The aRosa Mia will be towed to Linz for repairs. Damage has been estimated to be over 150,000 Euros. The water police has launched an investigation into the incident.
