The covered wooden bridge in Turgi, also known as the Ennetturgi Wooden Bridge, is a charming, listed structure spanning the Limmat River in the canton of Aargau. It connects the communities of Turgi (left bank) and Untersiggenthal (right bank) and was originally built in 1845 by industrialists Heinrich and Rudolf Bebié as a private bridge to facilitate access to the cotton mill. The current bridge dates from 1921, with parts of the old wood reused.
