The “Devil’s Bridge” spanned the Windhäuser Bach at a height of just 4 m. It collapsed in 1956 and now the stones lie in the mostly dry stream bed.

You pass this historic bridge of the Germanic Garden over the P11.
The ruins of the former Devil's Bridge are hidden in the forest near today's "ford" over the Windhäuser Bach. It used to be 4m high and was made of sandstone. The eastern foundation is still clearly visible, but the actual bridge has collapsed.

The bridge has been in ruins for a long time and is an interesting historical relic.
