An anecdote about the Elliker Bridge: During the Second World War, the bridges near the border were charged with explosive charges. Fortunately, there was no need to actually trigger them. However, the Elliker bridge flew into the air because the explosive charge was struck by lightning shortly after the end of the war.

Observe the right of way rules: Too narrow for crossing - whoever gets their bike on the bridge first has the right of way
