History

The Baroque bridge was built between 1750 and 1780 using bricks. The castle could be accessed through this bridge. At the end of the 19th century the bridge was reinforced with new piers and the arches were walled. During a reconstruction in 2011 the entrepreneur partially demolished the bridge.
