    The bridge is located in Markelsheim (district of Bad Mergentheim) in the lovely Taubertal in Baden-Württemberg.
    - built in 1898, destroyed in 1945, rebuilt in 1953, new building in 2019
    - there have been stone figures on the bridge since 1898: St. Kilian, patron of the Franconian region, St. Urban, patron of the winegrowers and since 2020 again St. Nepomuk, patron of the bridges (who "disappeared" in 1945 due to the destruction)
    - mainpost.de/regional/main-tauber/st-nepomuk-estand-wieder-auf-der-markelsheimer-tauberbruecke-art-10474800
    - in the immediate vicinity of the bridge the "Lochbach" flows into the "Tauber"
