The Stallegger Bridge is a covered wooden bridge over the Wutach .
The Stalleger bridge presented with a now closed to public traffic access path, the connection between the Raumschaft Bonndorf and Löffingen ago. Access to the bridge is from the federal highway 315 (south side of the Wutach Gorge ) to Göschweiler , a suburb of Löffingen (north side of the Wutach Gorge). The bridge was the first passable crossing over the Wutach and used to be an important connection. Only with the construction of the bridge downstream at the Schattenmühle did the crossing in Stallegg take a back seat , also because of the steep access roads .
history
The Wutach crossing near Stallegg was probably already used when the Black Forest was settled. In 1254 and in the following years one encounters the Stehlekke, Stackelegk, Stahlegk and means the name of the castle of the same name , the bridge and the estate "Stallegger Hof". The bridge spans the Wutach at a comparatively narrow point, on a rocky promontory. The name Stallegg is therefore interpreted as a “corner of steel”. The Stahliger Weg is mentioned in 1290 in the Zinsrodel of the church in Löffingen. In 1411 there is talk of a "bridge over the Wutach near Stallegg" in connection with the nearby Stallegg Castle. The castle is closely connected to this important connecting route between the areas of the Schluchsee and Löffingen . Around 1500, the Obervogt of the Landgraviate of Baar , Georg von Reckenbach zu Stahlegk, was the feudal man of the Fürstenbergs at the castle. In 1585 the city of Löffingen recorded expenses for the Bruck an der Wuten. 1610 there is a drawing of the route and the transition at Stallegg on a land board, which is now in the Fürstenberg Archives in Donaueschingen. In 1632 the bridge was rendered unusable during the Thirty Years War . In 1702 and 1784 two new buildings of a Wutach bridge near Stellegg are documented. In 1787, for the first time, there is an indication that the bridge is covered, through an invoice for 14,000 shingles. Up until this point in time, the bridge was a very important crossing point, especially for the weekly grain and fruit market in Löffingen. In 1820, millers , bakers and traders from the Schluchsee, Berau and Menzenschwand areas complained about the poor condition of the bridge and the dangerous steep sections on both sides of the bridge. A contribution to the repair of the bridge was expected from Prince zu Fürstenberg, as he owned tithe barn and fruit boxes in Löffingen. In 1848, during the Baden Revolution , the bridge was made unusable again after the Hecker train south of the Wutach was confronted by the Württemberg dragoons called for help by the Grand Duke north of the bridge. In 1849 it was decided that the rebuilding of the bridge would be at the expense of the Fürstenberg family.
Today's bridge
In 1852, today's bridge was rebuilt as a covered bridge. With a carriageway width of 3.50 m and a 4 m high passage, it spans at a height of 8.5 m, with a span of 17 m the Wutach and is therefore flood-proof.
From 1928 the traffic over the Wutach increased more and more. Because of the bridge that was built downstream at the Schattenmühle in the meantime and the access roads that were far less steep there, the crossing over the Stallegger Bridge was downgraded from a district road and closed to through traffic. The maintenance of the bridge was thus incumbent on the community of Göschweiler and later, with the incorporation of the town in 1972, of the city of Löffingen . In 1986 the bridge roof and planks were renewed and in 1999 damage caused by fallen trees was repaired.
When it was discovered in 2005 that the girder structure of the bridge was rotten and rotten, the bridge had to be closed to vehicle traffic. It was decided to preserve the bridge and commissioned the Claudia Stegerer-Richter engineering office with a renovation in accordance with the listed buildings. From August 5, 2006 to September 2007, the bridge was cleared and completely renovated. The renovation was financed by the Naturpark Südschwarzwald eV and the city of Löffingen.

On June 7, 1924, the Stallegg-Wutach (No. 354) gauge under and in front of the bridge, operated by the Republic of Baden , was put into operation. When the Stallegg run-of- river power station was shut down in 1979, the level, which was in poor condition, was not upgraded or relocated, and it was also shut down on October 31, 1979. At the gauge, which was 61 km away from the mouth and had a catchment area of 212.05 km², the hydraulic conditions for measuring the discharge were unsatisfactory. In addition, the site was hydrologically classified as "not of primary importance". Today there is still a bar level at this point, which is used by canoeists when driving past. For tour preparation of online level Ewattingen used.
