The Meisenheim Beautification Association from 1878 built the footbridge between the Herrenschlag (yellow house) and the valley in 1893. The execution took place in steel framework with cast iron posts on stone pillars. In 1998, thanks to the allocation of the country, donations and personal contributions, the footbridge was renewed.
