Grünentaler Hochbrücke

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

The Grünentaler Hochbrücke is a combined railway and road bridge spanning the Nord-Ostsee-Kanal with separate lanes for trains, vehicles, and bicycles. The structure uses a truss beam system designed to allow different transportation modes to cross simultaneously.

The original structure was built between 1891 and 1892 from designs by Claus Greve and initially featured distinctive towers. These towers were removed in 1935, significantly altering the bridge's appearance.

The bridge serves as a daily crossing for local commuters between both shores. It provides views of the canal during transit and connects communities on either side of the waterway.

The bridge is sufficiently elevated to allow ships on the canal to pass freely underneath, meaning large watercraft can navigate the passage year-round. Pedestrians and cyclists should expect regular ship and train traffic that may affect crossing times.

The original support structures on both sides of the canal were preserved and now serve as viewing platforms to watch ships passing below. These retained structures offer a quiet spot to observe waterway traffic.
