In 1806, shortly before the outbreak of the French war, the Collegium of the Bauakademie was commissioned by the highest authority to draw up and submit plans for the reconstruction of the Opera Bridge with a guardhouse nearby and the construction of a massive dog bridge (castle bridge).
Here, the older and higher-ranking officials of the Collegium were in demand, for example Johann Heinrich Gentz.
As a young civil servant, Solomo Sachs was so fascinated by this task that he worked out his own drawings, ideas and drafts in complete silence.
He submitted them to his teacher, the privy councillor Becherer, who submitted the drawings for examination.
Against all the specialists' magnificent drawings, his designs for the Palace Bridge and the New Guardhouse won the prize.
The outbreak of war delayed the plans.
