The so-called Franzosenbrücke is located along the Innerste at the intersection with Kreisstraße 32. This stone arch bridge was first mentioned in 1593.

During a flood on April 6, 1808, the bridge collapsed. With the help of French pioneers, local craftsmen managed to erect a wooden emergency bridge on the remains of the bridge piers in good time, so that the connection could be opened again in May 1808.
Since then the bridge has been called the Franzosenbrücke. On the one hand, because French troops were involved in the reconstruction and, on the other hand, because there was a French guardhouse in front of the bridge, which had been built to protect the bridge and where a road toll was levied on passers-by.
