Alte Niederräder Brücke, Steel railway bridge in Frankfurt, Germany.

The Alte Niederräder Brücke extends 218 meters across the Main River, connecting the districts of Gutleutviertel and Niederrad with its steel truss structure.

Built between 1880 and 1882, the bridge underwent major modifications from 1925 to 1928 when its pillars were reinforced and the structure was replaced with steel truss.

The bridge serves as a central connection point for Frankfurt's transportation network, linking the Main Station to Niederrad Station through multiple rail lines.

The structure measures 11 meters in width and provides 7.40 meters of clearance for river vessels, while incorporating a pedestrian walkway on its western side.

The bridge remained operational after reconstruction in January 1946, despite substantial damage during March 1945 when Wehrmacht forces destroyed numerous Main River crossings.
