      August Preuße was born in Höhscheid in 1908 and completed his artistic training from 1931 to 1933 at the Düsseldorf Art Academy as a master student of Paul Klee. Klee's teaching influenced Prussia significantly. Prussian imagery testifies to the understanding of the European avant-garde and classical modernism. When August Preuße died during the war in 1942, he was just 34 years old. The August-Preuße-Brücke has not yet entered into the linguistic usage of the Solingen people. The bridge named after the Solingen painter is one of two modern aluminum bridges that were built over the corkscrew route in August 2007. The August-Preuße-Brücke leads over the Carl-Ruß-Straße, there is another bridge over the Wuppertaler Straße. According to the city, the bridge in Wald was christened Prussia at the request of the sponsors involved.
