"The so-called Kulturpark Unser Fritz is located at the end of the strikingly colorful canal bridge with the red steel framework, the yellow railings and a green lane. It is also known as the "Parrot Bridge", an undoubtedly very appropriate name for the structure. The approximately 75 meter long bridge is Built at the beginning of the new millennium, replacing an older bridge a few meters to the west. Ramps lead onto the roadway from both sides and also allow cyclists to easily cross the canal."

Nice views of the canal from the bridge. Especially on the southern bank of the canal, it can be seen very clearly that the water level of the canal is significantly higher than the level of the street (Alleestraße).
