The Kettensteg is the oldest iron chain bridge in Europe and the oldest free-floating suspension bridge in Germany.

Germany's first free-floating, chain-hung river bridge gave its name to the restaurant located on it. During the time of the Imperial City, the restaurant was named after two other Nuremberg taverns. Located directly on the Pegnitz River, the Kettensteg was a popular restaurant, especially in the summer when the garden was open.
The restaurant is currently being renovated. However, you can buy drinks or coffee at a small stand and relax on one of the garden chairs.

The historic chain bridge begins to sway slightly as you cross it, which is an interesting feeling. You also have a very nice view of the Pegnitz to the right and left.
