The crossing of the Main is of great economic and social importance for Schwürbitz. A Main bridge has been documented since 1851. After the Lichtenfels-Hof Northern Railway was put into operation in 1847, it was important not to miss the connection to the big wide world and to provide good access to the railway. The most important link to the Hochstadt train station was the wooden footbridge over the Main in Schwürbitz. In 1851, this wooden footbridge, which had suffered greatly after several floods, was secured. The wobbly wooden frame was secured with "Wiedseile" or "Wieden", which were bands twisted from suitable branches that were indispensable for rafting. The five "experts" were paid nine kreuzers and board for their work.
