The bridge over Jels Å at Mojbøl a little east of Øster Lindet does not look like much. The river is the municipal boundary between Vejen and Haderslev municipalities and the bridge is also the transition between asphalt and gravel.
The story behind the bridge you have to go to the north side of the bridge to spot. The seemingly inconspicuous bridge, which consists of a concrete deck and steel guardrails, actually contains a snippet of history from the time when the area was German - i.e. from 1864 to 1920. The bridge, which has been used since it was built in 1917, was built by German engineer troops as part of the establishment of the German defence facility Sikringsstilling Nord, which ran across Southern Jutland in 1916-17.
An inscription on the side of the bridge says "Erbaut im Sommer 1917 von der Pionier Komp. 4 Magdeburg". See picture 2.
The bridge - not the crash barrier - was listed in 1937. The bridge is 10 m long and 4.5 m wide, and there is approx. 1.2 m from the water surface to the underside of the bridge. The bridge is constructed of concrete and the ramparts are set in brick boulders.
