The gate tower was simultaneously a city gate 🏰 and a bell tower 🔔. The bells date from the 15th and 16th centuries.

The old railway bridge for cyclists and pedestrians has been renovated with a modern superstructure featuring a non-slip surface and benches. The old bridge piers and abutments are still preserved. There is currently no information about the history of the old Kanonenbahn bridge.

Actually, no new highlights would have been needed. The bridge was simply renovated from the ground up and the road surface renewed.
