The bridge is really narrow. Allegedly only 180cm wide. Concentration is required when crossing by car.

Leer a maritime village in East Friesland. If the masses of tourists are not there, it is many times more vivid

@andreas: Thank you so much for your informative tips👍 The bridge is a highlight. No road user (including cyclists) can relate to the phrases from another ADFC guide: "You can only cross when the light is green." Especially since it's a very tricky spot for car users. For cyclists, the approach and exit are quite steep, and the bridge is extremely narrow, with a clearance width of 180 cm.

With a width of 1.80 m, the Leda Bridge in Amdorf is the narrowest car bridge in Germany. The steel truss bridge, with a length of 50 m and a total width of 2.5 m, was inaugurated in June 1956. Since the bridge only has one lane, traffic lights regulate passage. It replaced a ferry connection that had existed since 1886. Since ferry traffic was stopped in winter, all connections were cut off and residents had to take a detour of almost 25 km. Source: jümme-tourismus.de

The four-chamber lock is from 1840 and quite unique. Dieter Jacobs has been the lock keeper for 23 years. On asphalt roads, the Kesselschleuse would be a kind of roundabout – one of many. Nothing special you will think. True of course. However, this round lock is unique on Europe's waterways. Nowhere else will you find a facility that connects four converging bodies of water with different water levels. This lock creates a balance between the Ems-Jade Canal, the Fehntjer Tief, the Stadtgraben and the Roten-Siel-Tief, which leads towards the port of Emden. Built in 1885/86, it is more than 100 years old and has long been a monument - but it is still in operation. Its focal point is the Kessel, the round basin with a diameter of 33 meters in which ships can turn. The ships are channeled into this center via one of the four chambers. You leave it via one of the other three chambers, depending on your destination. The extraordinary structure was created together with the Ems-Jade Canal. It was the Prussians who wanted a waterway between Wilhelmshaven and East Friesland. From 1880 onwards excavations begin. It's about 72 kilometers. https://emden.eezeebee.com/places/details/22
