The Aare Gorge in Brugg is 1400 m long. 15 m wide at the narrowest point, where it reaches a depth of 17 m and is therefore deeper than wide. The Romans already built the first bridges here that were protected from flooding. The houses in the old town are built directly on the rocks, making the gorge appear deeper. Always impressive to observe this integrated architecture of man and nature from the old bridge.

The narrowest point between Lake Thun and the confluence of the Aare and Rhine. The Romans built the first bridges here, connecting two sides with a single trunk. The bridge built in this way was an important part of the road connection between Vindonisa and Augusta Raurica.

Even the Romans built the bridge here. A simple wooden bridge stood here in the High Middle Ages. This bridge was built in 1925, designed by architect Albert Fröhlich.
