EN: Nowadays a pedestrians bridge, there's a new conctrete bridge just next to it for motorized traffic.
It can be rented for events by residents of Münchenstein.
I have not found much information about this bridge, except for a photo from 1914, so it's at least that old, and a news entry from 2007 that it was almost burnt down by drunken teeagers.
