      Winsen (Aller): The Aller Bridge
      It is believed that there were bridges in Winsen (Aller) as early as around the year 1000. Winsen used to be at the intersection of two important trade routes: the north-south Heerstraße came from Lübeck and led to Frankfurt am Main (?) And the east-west connecting Bremen and Braunschweig. There was a lot of traffic on both streets.
      At Winsen there was a furth through the Aller and was an attraction in and of itself. Around 1300 the Duke of Celle had a wooden bridge built, making Winsen even more important.
      After the bridge was destroyed in the Battle of Winsen in 1388, the Duke of Celle had it rebuilt and guarded by a protective force consisting of 45 armed men and 20 archers.
      Since the old wooden bridges did not have a long lifespan, the wood soon rotten, ships and ice damaged it, there is no information about the construction / reconstruction of the bridges and maintenance for a long time.
