    Until 1875 the main traffic over the Pfinztal went through the "Staig" - today Staigstraße.

    Nice old bridge, built in 1706. All the wagons towards Pfinz had to cross this bridge. During the Second World War the bridge was to be blown up before the Allies, luckily this was prevented by a successful intervention by Pastor Fuchs and teacher Mössinger.

    The Staig Bridge in Grötzingen carries Staigstraße across Kirchstraße.

    The bridge and the associated Staigstraße represent an early form of bypass and were originally intended for rapid troop movements. It diverted traffic into the Pfinz Valley above the church, bypassing the town center. This function is now performed by the Grötzingen Tunnel.

    Explanation at the bridge: "Until 1875, all traffic into the Pfinz Valley passed over the Staig. The bridge was built in 1706 at the request of Margravine Augusta by Margrave Ludwig."
