    The ruins of the bridge are already quite overgrown and cannot be seen immediately.
    Interesting to read about the history:

    Historic highlight:
    "On April 8, 1945, the bridge was blown up by Wehrmacht soldiers retreating from American troops; only the eastern arch remained. It was not rebuilt after the war. Instead, a winding bypass was set up that crossed the Ummigsbach about 200 m to the northwest on a much smaller bridge." - Wikipedia
