The coat of arms, the crowned W of King William I, stands in the bridgehead to the left of the bridge.
The stone originally stood as a keystone on the north side of the stone arch that replaced the wooden span between the Servaas Bridge and the bank on the Wycker side in 1827.

For centuries the channel in the river Meuse between the St. Servaas bridge and the embankment in Wijck was bridged by a wooden bridge section, which was replaced by a stone arch in 1827. On the northern side the arch received a keystone with the W of William I and on the southern side the Maastricht city star.
