Guided Story
Can you hear the Saale river flowing beneath you? Right here, where you're standing, was once a bustling hub for traders and travelers. The bridge you see now is relatively new, but the history of this spot goes way back. Look up and imagine people centuries ago transporting their goods across here. Behind you is the lively center of Jena, while in front of you lies the tranquil scenery of the Saale riverbank. If you look closely, you might spot a kingfisher darting over the water. It's the perfect spot for a little escape from city life, don't you think?
