Between the actual transporter bridge and the district of Basbeck, there are four places and eight information boards with various interesting information about the eight transporter bridges that still exist worldwide. At each display board, benches invite you to take a break!

The transporter bridge in the Cuxhaven district was put into operation in 1909. After a bridge was built nearby in the 1970s, it became obsolete for normal traffic. Volunteers worked to ensure that the bridge continued to operate for pedestrians, cyclists, and small vehicles – with success: This year, the support association, which has since also founded the "FährStuv" museum, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. The transporter bridge has developed into a tourist magnet in recent decades, says Brinkmann. The ferry is not a ship, but a vehicle that moves across a body of water suspended from a fixed support. According to the support association, there are eight transporter bridges still in operation worldwide. In Germany, another one normally operates in Rendsburg across the Kiel Canal. However, due to a technical defect, the operator says it will be out of service until at least the end of July.
