      Presumably there was a wooden bridge in Limburg as early as 1160. The priest Gottfried von Beselich is handed down as its builder. In 1248 a wooden bridge is mentioned again in Limburg. This was completely destroyed in a flood of the Lahn in 1255. The successor building, also wooden, was destroyed in a flood of the Lahn in 1306. After this flood it was decided to build a stone bridge. The stone bridge was built between 1315 and 1354. It originally had two bridge towers and a width of around 6 meters. This bridge was also damaged at irregular intervals by the floods of the Lahn, but not destroyed.
