The current bridge has its origins in the bridge that was built in 1870/71 according to the plans of the regional engineer Peter Rheinberger. The bridge, built in timber construction according to Howe's system, was in a poor structural condition and made it necessary to plan a new bridge. In 1900/01, the new bridge was again built in half-timbering and in Howe's style with a plank umbrella and roof. The company Krättli, Schmidt and Beck, Azmoos SG, was responsible for the planning and construction. The old yoke supports, which were already raised on the original bridge, were reused. The bridge has a total length of 135 m and an internal width of 4.20 m.
