Arnfels

The listed road bridge with the statue of St. John Nepomuk (according to the chronogram from 1706) leads over the Pößnitzbach stream and is also a symbol on the Arnfels hiking trail signs.

The statue of St John Nepomuk is a listed Baroque statue of a saint from the middle of the 18th century.

St Nepomuk is therefore considered a "bridge saint". Legend has it that he refused to break the seal of confession: He did not want to reveal to the king what his wife had confessed to him.
