Camsdorf Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Jena, Germany.

The Camsdorf Bridge stretches across the Saale River with nine arches connecting the central district of Jena to the suburb of Wenigenjena.

Originally constructed in 1480 using stones from demolished castles on Hausberg mountain, the bridge underwent reconstruction in 1946 following destruction during World War II.

The structure belongs to the Seven Wonders of Jena, recognized by University of Jena alumni as a significant architectural landmark within the city's heritage.

The bridge supports both vehicular traffic and a double-lane tram system, facilitating transportation between central Jena and its eastern districts.

A chapel stood on the bridge until 1824, marking the boundary between urban Jena and Camsdorf, while serving as a collection point for bridge maintenance funds.
