Description
The wooden bridge of Bad Säckingen is not only an architectural highlight, but also a remarkable structure that showcases the idyllic trumpet town on the Rhine in a particularly impressive way. Cross about 204 meters on Europe´s longest covered wooden bridge and experience history with every step. Since the 13th century, it connects not only the two banks of the Rhine but also Germany and the neighbouring Switzerland. Many visitors - both big and small - find great delight in being able to stand simultaneously in both countries on the white borderline on the bridge. While it was heavily used by cars in the past, today, the bridge is dedicated solely to pedestrians and cyclists. However, the old tire tracks are still visible in the wooden planks, reminding us of its lively and centuries-old history. If you wish to learn more, join a tour of the old town and discover more intriguing stories.
