The Napoleon Bridge is a single-arch natural stone bridge with a massive parapet that runs along the Alte Möllner Straße over the Mühlenbach. It was built between 1805 and 1808 and, like the structurally identical bridges in Steinbek and Reinbek, served to secure the border between the then Duchy of Holstein and Sachsen-Lauenburg, which was under the English crown.
There is no documentary evidence that Napoleon once crossed it. The name should have grown more popular.
The bridge is a cultural monument and is closed to motor vehicle traffic. It has been a listed building since 1971.
