It's actually called the Hermann Leerkamp Bridge.
It crosses the Vechte River. Bicycles can be pushed up and down on a rail.
Various hiking trails cross this bridge.

It is named after Hermann Leerkamp, a member of the SPD for over 50 years.
He was a member of the city and municipal councils for 25 years from 1972 to 1997; from 1989 to 1996, he was also mayor of the municipal council and is an honorary council member of the Schüttorf municipal council.
He turned 90 in 2022.
