    Hiking

    Saalbach is one of the oldest crossings of the upper Saale River; the original ford was later replaced by a footbridge.
    In 1875, this footbridge was extended by a covered wooden bridge, which was destroyed in 1945 by order of German troops.
    It's great that, since the construction of this bridge in 2004, you can cross the river again.

    The bridge's metal grating is unsuitable for dog paws and bicycle tires.
    The story behind the bridge is tragic. Large panels introduce the history of the former Saalbach estate.
