It complements Angel's Bridge and is one of the symbols not only of Toomemägi Hill but Tartu as a whole. A wooden bridge was erected on the site in Neogothic style in 1809 to the designs of J. W. Kraus. The current bridge, built in 1913 and designed by A. Eichhorn, was dedicated to the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty of the Russian tsars.

*The bridge's name may have come from the fact that it complemented Angel's Bridge or have been derived from the name of its lead construction engineer, Werner Zoege von Manteuffel (teufel being German for 'devil').
