Located in the heart of Bodenwerder's historic old town, the building has always stood at the point where the Weser River could be crossed. This was done using ferries, pontoons, and bridges. In 1883, the first road bridge was built upstream of the Weser. After that, the ferry house was used exclusively as a residential building.
