At the lower end of the street, the Powder Tower rises, which once fortified the southwestern corner of the city wall and housed the city's powder magazine. The tower probably dates from the mid-15th century and also served as a prison at times. According to legend, Black Peter from Schinderhannes' robber gang was allegedly held here.

The stone Wied bridge was built in 1648. It was temporarily destroyed by a flood, but also deliberately blown up to stop the advance of the Allies towards the end of the war.

The bridge was rebuilt after the flood disaster. It crosses the Ahr directly at the mouth of the Rhine
