With its ten yokes, it is modeled after the world famous Stone Bridge in Regensburg. The bridge was built between 1748 and 1750 with a length of about 92 meters by the architect and building director of the monastery Waldsassen, Philipp Muttone in the time of Abbot Alexander Vogel.

In the middle of the bridge are the statues of the Roman goddess of agriculture, marriage and death, Ceres, and the Roman goddess of justice and justice, Lady Justice.

The Fischhof bridge leads to the Fischhof, today's Tirschenreuther district court and seat of the bailiff. Previously, the building complex was a Zehenthof of the monastery Waldsassen, which, when Tirschenreuth was still surrounded by two artificial large ponds, located on an island. Under the bridge flow the Mühlbach and Netzbach, two tributaries of the Waldnaab.

Within the framework of the Small State Garden Show Nature in the City, the historic city pond was rebuilt until 2013 and the industrial wasteland was eliminated. The bridge is back in the water after more than 200 years.

The Fischhof Bridge is a ten-yoke granite arch bridge that rises towards the middle and is approximately 92 meters long. It is reminiscent of the “Stone Bridge” in Regensburg and was built in 1748/50 by the Waldsassen lay brother Philipp Muttone. The two statues (Ceres, Roman goddess of fertility and Justicia, Roman goddess of justice) were created in the early 20th century. In 1807 the Upper City Pond was drained. As part of the “Nature in Tirschenreuth 2013” garden show, a 6-hectare city pond has flowed around the baroque Fischhof Bridge and part of the Fischhof Island since 2012.
