The "Alte Rheinbrücke" is a covered wooden bridge linking the municipalities of Vaduz and Sevelen - and Lichtenstein and Switzerland. It is very nice old wooden bridge and it is worth of visit. Most people goes here to take a picture with one hang in LI and one in SCH. :-) Measuring 135 metres in length, it was completed in 1901 and is today the only remaining wooden bridge spanning the Rhine. Another wooden bridge was, in fact, erected at the same spot 30 years earlier. However, this required rebuilding due to damage caused by the bridge being raised on two separate occasions while work was being carried out redirecting the Rhine. After the dam in Schaan broke in 1927, the bridge was raised once again. The bridge, which has a wooden roof, was renovated between 2009 and 2010. Motor vehicles are not permitted to use the bridge, making it particularly popular with cyclists.

Great piece of history here and a rarity that this covered bridge still stands! There lots of good websites for information on the history of this bridge, which are available in English (check Atlas Obscura), as the signs are only in German. The bridge is only open for pedestrians and cyclists, so make sure that if you’re walking you remain on the pathways to the side. There was significant amounts of cattle poop on the bridge when we went, so be careful to dodge that! It is accessible for people in wheelchairs, there are no public toilets nearby, and there is a car park a mere 2 minute walk away should you drive to it in order to cross!

Blick vom Liechtensteiner Ufer auf den Rhein und die historische Rheinbrücke aus Holz. Auf der anderen Seite sieht man die Schweiz. Auf einem gut ausgebauten Rad- und Fußweg kann man auf dem Deich am Rhein spazieren gehen. Dabei hat man einen sehr schönen Blick auf den Rhein. Bei unserem Besuch im Oktober 2022 führte er relativ wenig Wasser. Im Gegensatz zum mächtigen Rhein in Deutschland war er deutlich schmaler. Ein Spaziergang über die Brücke ist ein Muss. Über angebrachte Informationstafeln kann man sich über die Geschichte der Brücke informieren. Schön gelegen und von Bergen umgeben. Empfehlung

Sehr interessante Konstruktion. Ich spaziere fast jeden Abend darüber. Bei Dunkelheit ist die Brücke innen beleuchtet. Auf der Sevelerseite kann man ein Foto der Brücke mit dem Schloss im Hintergrund machen. Es wäre schön,wenn man die Sticker auf den Landes- und Ortstafeln von Zeit zu Zeit entfernt. Vielleicht kann Vaduz den Seveler einen Abfalleimer und eine angenehme Sitzbank spenden. ;-)

We came to Vaduz specifically to see this bridge. It certainly is well preserved. And the view from the bridge is beautiful. Interestingly, on the other side of the bridge is another country. But the Rhine is now very shallow in winter. Probably better to come here in the spring. And yet, horse riders go there, and the waste products of horses lie there, under their feet. Not very nice.

If you walk from the Town Hall it will take you about 20 minutes to reach this bridge which connects Switzerland and Liechtenstein. This is a perfect place for walking, the landscape is amazing (mountains, Rhine River). There used to be a sign right at the middle showing the exact point of the border but it is no longer there.

We visited the bridge so as to say we had been to Liechtenstein on our way through. We parked in the carpark on the Liechtenstein side of the bridge and walked along the cycle path to the bridge maybe 500m. The bridge has some information on about its construction and upkeep. Worth a visit.

There were no permanent bridges over the Rhine until its course was brought under control with a series of dams designed to straighten and tame the river. This is the only remaining wooden bridge connecting Liechtenstein and Switzerland, it was built in 1871 and it's now a listed monument.

Beeindruckende Holzbrücke über den Rhein von Liechtenstein und die Schweiz. Inmitten der Brücke sind die beiden Ländergrenzen und die angehörigen Städte vermerkt. Für Fußgänger, Radfahrer und Reiter zugänglich. An der Front gibt es einen QR zum Scannen für den historischen Hintergrund.

Ein Geocache hat uns in die Nähe geführt. Das Parken auf einem regulären Parkplatz war etwas schwierig. Ansonsten ist dies aber ein sehr toller Ort. Die Holzkonstruktion der alten Brücke ist interessant anzuschauen. Auf jeden Fall einen Stopp wert!

Beautiful bridge for walking and cycling. Especially the water flowing under bridge, gives the mesmerizing view to the eyes of beholder. We also made a dancing video here, as we couldn't leave the place without capturing few beautiful moments.

The old rhine bridge is a historical wooden bridge that connects Liechtenstein with Switzerland. It’s an excellent tourist landmark to take picture and make videos, worth the visit specially if your in the area or going into Vaduz

Awesome memory for the family, but photo opportunity ruined by video screens for art display in the way of the border crossing photo site. Lame. Sweet pics of the kids with lady's nose behind them and dude dancing.

Sehr schöner kurzer Spaziergang von Liechtenstein in die Schweiz...Toll auch der Planetenlehrpfad entlang des Rheins auf der Liechtensteiner Seite. Parkmöglichkeit am Rheinstadion ebenfalls sehr gut und günstig!

Crossed this bridge while walking back to Switzerland after a day trip in Liechtenstein. Such a lovely quaint structure connecting two friendly countries. Bridges over walls. Watch out for horse poop though.

A piece of history that still standing gracefully above the river Rhine, connecting two countries Only pedestrians and cyclists are allowed, and you have to park your car few minutes away from the bridge.

A true historical landmark in both Liechtenstein and Switzerland. Beautiful wooden bridge. Tip: cross the bridge up to the middle and enjoy a nice picture of the free "border" between both countries.

Nice old wooden bridge, there's cute signage where Switzerland border meets Liechtenstein in the middle of the river to take a fun pic. Doesn't take long to cross. Nice walks along the river nearby.

Very cool sight to be able to cross a border in literally a step! Cool stop if you’re on the highway since it’s just 10 minutes walk from the center of Vaduz (Liechtenstein)

09.08.2023. Was eine Leistung der damaligen Ingenieure. Und sie steht noch, sieht gut aus, funktioniert und benötigt keine Energie. Grenze Ch-Fl.

Tolle Brücke mit Nostalgie-Faktor. In der Mitte kann man dann die Grenze zwischen CH und FL überschreiten. Parkplätze in Gehweite (5 Min). …

Lovely little spot we saw upon driving into Liechtenstein. A casual walk took us to Switzerland and gave us some fantastic photo opportunities.

Beautiful view of the brigde and Rhine river. But the parking was 300m away and you have to walk a lot to reach the bridge.

Ist etwas vom Zentrum entfernt, aber es lohnt sich definitiv! Fußgängerbrücke, die 2 Länder verbindet: coole Nummer!

So kommt mann einfach von einem Land ins andere Land in einer besonderen Brücke. Ich mochte das.

Diese Brücke ist die Letzte ihrer Art am Alpenrhein, rund 150 Jahre alt, ein must see !

Generell ist der weg am rhein entlang sehr schön für ein spaziergang oder velo fahrt.

Sehr interessanter Ort, gut zu erreichen, kostenloser Zugang.

Very nice old wooden bridge
