Gerner Brücke, Footbridge in Munich, Germany
Gerner Bridge spans the Nymphenburger Canal using iron and reinforced concrete construction. It connects Gerner Strasse in the Gern district to Renatastrasse in Neuhausen, serving pedestrians and cyclists crossing the waterway.
The bridge was built in 1897 during Munich's urban expansion and completely reconstructed in 1927. Major restoration work took place in the 1990s.
The neo-baroque arch design and railings reflect the architectural style of nearby Nymphenburg Palace. You can observe this building style while walking along the canal paths.
The bridge is accessible to pedestrians and cyclists from both sides of the canal. It provides a good stopping point when walking along the green spaces surrounding the waterway.
From the bridge you can see the Hubertus Fountain at the eastern end of the canal. However, views of Nymphenburg Palace are blocked by another bridge downstream.
