The Hirschhorn barrage was completed in 1933 and damms the Neckar by an average of 5.30 meters. A road bridge spans the three-span weir that serves the traffic between the core town of Hirschhorn on the right bank and the Ersheim district on the left bank.

The Neckar exits are the same in design. Only the lock chambers are on the different sides of the river.
