A wooden footbridge over the Danube, built in 1940 by a pioneer unit above the Amalienfelsen rock formation, was washed away by flooding on June 27, 1953. To replace it and connect the northern part of the park, a Swiss company built a pedestrian suspension bridge for €665,000. This bridge was inaugurated in March 2019 in the presence of Winfried Kretschmann, then Minister-President of Baden-Württemberg.
