    Knowledge Bach Bridge from 1872
    The 23 meter long Schwänberg Bridge is a covered rod polygon bridge over the Wissbach.
    For pedestrians, it connects the Egg district of Flawil with the Schwänberg district of Herisau. The first bridge was built in 1615 and replaced by the current one in 1782. Numerous inscriptions by its builders make it a "speaking bridge".
