König-Karls-Brücke, Road bridge in Bad Cannstatt, Stuttgart, Germany.

The König-Karls-Brücke spans across the Neckar River with a total length of 252 meters and a road width of 18 meters.

The original bridge from 1893 was destroyed in 1945, leading to its reconstruction in 1948 as a concrete arch bridge and later replacement in 1976.

Between 1897 and 1901, sculptor Adolf Fremd created figures representing agriculture, trade, commerce, and defense to decorate the bridge approaches.

The bridge structure accommodates both vehicle traffic and urban rail lines while providing dedicated lanes for pedestrians and cyclists.

The construction utilized Martin iron with stone pillars sourced from the Kinzig Valley and Alpirsbach region for the original 1893 structure.

Location: Stuttgart

Architects: Karl von Leibbrand
