Grünentaler Hochbrücke, Railway and road bridge in Beldorf, Germany.

The Grünentaler Hochbrücke stretches 405 meters across the Nord-Ostsee-Kanal, featuring separate lanes for trains, vehicles, and a dedicated cycling path.

The original bridge, designed by Claus Greve, was constructed between 1891 and 1892 with towers that were later removed in 1935.

The bridge foundations on both sides of the canal were preserved and transformed into observation platforms for watching passing ships.

The structure maintains a height of 42.55 meters above the canal water level to accommodate large vessel traffic throughout the year.

The bridge's longest span measures 187 meters and incorporates 3,500 tons of steel in its truss beam construction.
