The bridge is known for its impressive panorama. From this vantage point, one of the most beautiful views upstream of the former fishing village unfolds, with its medieval half-timbered houses and boat moorings situated directly on the water. In the distance, the striking Old Town Hall, built in the middle of the river, can be seen.

Beautiful view of Little Venice with its well-kept half-timbered houses. Not as crowded as the Lower Bridge.

Old run-of-river power station (1920). Previously, the water supply came from the Regnitz via the old factory canal. Today, the RMD canal has taken over this task.

Easy route. Flat and straight. Rather boring.
