In the old days, when large ships came through regularly, this bridge was a technical marvel, managing the river traffic. Just picture the amazement of people back then as they watched it open for a steamship to pass. Behind you is the historic Linn district, with its charming timber-framed houses and the impressive Linn Castle. This bridge isn't just a path across the Rhine; it's a link between past and present.
