Gertraudenbrücke, Arch road bridge in Berlin-Mitte, Germany.

The Gertraudenbrücke spans across the Spree River with two parallel structures: a stone bridge and a concrete road bridge measuring 38 meters in length.

Originally built in the 13th century as a wooden drawbridge named Teltower Bridge, it was replaced by the current structure in 1978.

The bridge features a bronze statue of Saint Gertrude, the 7th-century abbess of Nivelles Abbey, who protected against rodent infestations.

The bridge connects the Alexanderplatz area to Potsdamer Platz through Leipziger Street, with dedicated paths for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians.

The bridge's decorative railings include pointed arch panels and wrought iron ornaments in the middle section, reflecting traditional German craftsmanship.
