Geocache Description:


Wamme bro

 

Här fanns en bro troligtvis redan på 1650 talet som förband Säveåns stränder med varandra. Den vackra stenbron som står här idag byggdes 1853. 

Namnet wamme anses komma ifrån det fornnordiska ordet wamb som betyder sänka. Platsen tjänstgjorde som ett vad redan innan här anlades en bro.

Efter att den nya betongbron byggdes 1961 stängdes biltrafiken succesivt av.

 

För att logga denna virtuella cache måste du ta ett kort där både bron och du syns. Du behöver inte visa ditt ansikte om du inte vill.

 

 

 

Already around 1650 there was a bridge here connecting the shores of Säveån.

The beautiful stone bridge seen today was constructed in 1853.

The name Wamme is derived from the old norse word wamb meaning basin. Already before there was a bridge it was a place where the river was forded.

After the inaugeration of the concrete bridge further downstreams in 1961 traffic became restricted and today it is open only for pedestrians and bicycles.

 

To log this virtual you have to take a photo where the bridge and you are visible. You do not have to show your face.
