This is what I found...Google translated it for me... "Kubelbrücke via Urnäsch, Herisau - Stone 1780
The covered with a hipped roof bridge is the last bridge over the Urnäsch before its confluence with the sitter. Because of their numerous inscriptions on the transom it is also called "Speaking bridge". It was built in 1780, after 1778 flood destroyed all the bridges and walkways of Urnäsch. The structure consists of a polygonal truss of 5 fields. Length 32 m, width 30 m, width 2.8 m"
This link is where I found the bridge and info. It is the 5th bridge listed. http://www.karl-gotsch.de/Album/CH_Stege.htm
