Kornhausbrücke, Concrete arch bridge in Zürich, Switzerland
The Kornhausbrücke spans across the Limmat River with a design that emphasizes clean lines and structural efficiency in its concrete construction.
The bridge opened in 1929 as part of Zürich's infrastructure development, marking a period of urban expansion and transportation improvements in the city.
Positioned near the city center, the bridge connects multiple neighborhoods and provides a vantage point of the flowing Limmat River below.
Pedestrians and vehicles cross the bridge daily, making it an essential connection between the eastern and western sections of central Zürich.
The bridge takes its name from a former granary that stood nearby, reflecting the historical importance of grain storage in this area of Zürich.
