The bridge was built in 1855 by Andreas Töpper, an important representative of the Austrian iron industry at that time. The life-size figures on the bridge were cast in iron against the background of the client and represent the biblical name cartridges of the Töpper couple.

The Töpper Bridge over the Ybbs River is located near Kasten and is a historic structure on the popular Ybbstal Cycle Path. It was built in 1855 by industrialist Andreas Töpper, a prominent patron of the region. The bridge is decorated with elaborately crafted Mariazell cast iron figures, including Saints John of Nepomuk, St. Florian, Empress Helena, and St. Andrew the Apostle. A large crucifix sits in the center. After a catastrophic flood in 1861 destroyed the original bridge, it was immediately rebuilt in its current form.

The bridge, its surroundings and the Lunzer See are definitely worth a visit.
