Information by Heidi Zahir:<br>During the new creation of the Federal road to Nauders, the bridge was built in 1854 and of Tyrol, Kajetan of Bissingen, Germany, named after the former Governor. It was the largest self-supporting wooden bridge in Tyrol and was converted to a stone arch bridge in 1956.
It leads the Reschenbundesstrasse about it.<br><br>Wikipedia:<br>1854 was started with the construction of the high dark coin road planned by Karl Ritter von Ghega Nauders (it corresponds to the today's Federal road). During the new creation of the Federal road to Nauders, a wooden bridge on the site was built, which was named after the then Governor of Tyrol, Kajetan of Bissingen. The original bridge was a large wooden arch, which was framed on both sides by stone arch over the river opening. Originally, it was the largest self-supporting wooden bridge in Tyrol. Due to increased traffic, the wooden arch was replaced in 1956/1957 through an arch made of reinforced concrete.

The Kajetansbrücke from the Roman via Claudia Augusta as a hiking trail leads to the nearby Altfinstermünz, where the old road from the Reschen pass, led on the Inn, which lost its importance with the opening of Kajetansbrücke, and where located the site of the Customs (Customs moved 1779 to Martina/Martinsbruck).
