    Built in 1844. Formerly served as a timber drift: a lot of loose wood was transported on the water. This wood was mainly used as firewood (salt mines and railways). The wood that was left over was sold to the public.

        The historic timber rafting bridge dates back to 1844 and was renovated in 2000.
        The information panel tells of the hard work of timber rafting. The wood was primarily needed to heat the saltworks.
