Dreigurtbrücke, Steel railway bridge in Düren, Germany
The Dreigurtbrücke stretches 78 meters across the Rur River with a height of 14.80 meters and features three distinctive steel girders in its construction.
Built between 1928 and 1929, this bridge replaced a stone arch structure from 1841 and was officially inaugurated on August 3, 1930.
The bridge stands as a protected architectural monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, representing early 20th-century German engineering and industrial development.
The double-track railway bridge continues to serve the high-speed rail route between Cologne and Aachen, connecting major transportation networks in the region.
Engineer Robert Tils designed this riveted steel truss bridge with two lower girders placed 13.50 meters apart, creating an innovative structural solution.
