In Ihlienworth there had been a path from the western entrance to the village on the Medem for centuries, which led to the dike path.

In 1899 a wooden walkway with a stairway over the Medem was created not far from it. This Medemsteg, popularly known as “Kattenstigg”, was supposed to enable the residents of Wester-Ihlienworth to go shopping at the “Colonialwaaren-Handlung-Meyer” in Oster-Ihlienworth without having to make a detour.

The Medempfad was then extended from Deichweg to Medemsteg. After the department store was closed in 1914, the path and footbridge were still used for livestock farming east of the Medem.

It was and is also popular with walkers. In 2002 the old footbridge was replaced by a barrier-free new building in the same place.
