    Historical bridge over the Aare.

      The covered wooden bridge near Wangen an der Aare is quite old and was built in 1549. It has a length of 92 meters. I would be surprised if our high-tech bridges from the latest annual counts are as old as this building.

        The Wangenbrücke in its present form is a monument from 1552. But already in 1367 a first bridge over the Aare is mentioned at this point. Numerous stories entwine around this Aareübergang. Several sources report a ship Swiss Confederate mercenary, which shattered in 1480 at the bridge pier of the silent bridge town. 160 men are said to have drowned. Until the construction of the bypass of Wangen in 1978, the entire traffic crowded over this historic wooden bridge and through the town.
