A covered wooden bridge spans the Reuss near Bremgarten. The first bridge at this point was built in the 13th century, the current one dates from 1953. On the left bank of the river you can visit the Bollhaus and the museum in the former Bruggmühle hydroelectric power station.

One of, if not the, landmark of the town of Bremgarten.
It dates back to the 13th century and houses two small, pointed-gable chapels in the middle of the bridge. In front of it is the Bollhaus, which was once part of the town's fortifications.
The Reuss Bridge is the number one photo motif in Bremgarten. From here, you can also enjoy a unique view of the striking stone tower of the Muri Amthof.
