450 years: The wooden bridge
"450 years: The bridge made of wood"
As part of the Year of Anniversaries 2023, the Tourism & Culture Office at the Hochrheinmuseum Schloss Schönau is commemorating one of its most important buildings: the wooden bridge.
The longest covered wooden bridge in Europe (204 m) is one of Bad Säckingen's landmarks. The bridge has already experienced a lot in its 450-year history - but people also have their very own stories to tell about it. These stories and its history will be highlighted in an exhibition to mark its anniversary in 2023.
The historical review, in which the transformation of the bridge over the centuries will also play a role, will be complemented by a presentation of paintings. In its archives, the Hochrheinmuseum houses numerous paintings by regional artists on this motif, which is still popular today. The temporary exhibition will be enriched by works of art that were created by schoolchildren as part of a school competition under the motto "Holzbrücke neu gesehen" (Wooden bridge seen anew). The focus here is on young creativity.
