In the small monastery village of Hohenholte, this historic, listed bridge crosses the Münter'sche Aa, the course of which is currently being renaturalized in this area. The baroque-style parapet made of clinker bricks with sandstone elements, as well as the sandstone figures of St. Anthony of Padua and St. Nepomuk (the bridge's saint) standing on it, are a special feature of this monument. Another unique feature are the benches with sandstone coverings set into both sides of the bridge.

The river and bridge form the border between the municipalities of Havixbeck and Altenberge and the districts of Coesfeld and Steinfurt.

The historic arched bridge "Zur Aa-Brücke" crosses the Münstersche Aa in Hohenholte. Historically significant is the boundary stone placed there, which has marked the historical division of two districts and municipalities for almost 200 years.
