The historic Eiderbrücke is located at the Eiderkate in Reesdorf and was built in 1803. It is a real architectural gem and can still be loaded with 10 t today. That was quality work.
In the past, if you wanted to reach the villages of Bruges, Schmalstede, Bordesholm and Wattenbek, you had to cross the Eider. Before the stone Eiderbrücke was built, there was only a ford for lorry traffic and a wooden footbridge for pedestrians. Due to the high risk of accidents and the high costs caused by recurring defects in the wooden bridge that required repairs, an application was made to build a bridge. The request made to the royal court in Copenhagen was initially rejected, but the residents of Reesdorf and the surrounding area were successful at the second attempt in 1802. In 1803 the Eider Bridge was finally built by Jasper Hatz from Brüggerdorf.
Today, the Eider Bridge is no longer as important for traffic in the area as it was then, but it is now a listed building due to its historical significance.

The bridge dates from the 19th century, is located at the Eiderkate Reesdorf and is now a listed building.
Before the bridge was built, Schmalstede, Bruges, Bordesholm & Wattenbek were only accessible via a ford (for lorry traffic) & a wooden footbridge (for pedestrians). Due to the risk of accidents & high repair costs of the wooden footbridge, an application for a bridge was made at the Danish court & only approved in the 2nd attempt & then built in 1802 by Jasper Hatz from Brüggerdorf & completed in 1803.
