Karl Lehr bridge

The Karl Lehr Bridge features a steel arch design spanning across the Ruhr River, connecting multiple districts within the industrial region of Duisburg.

Built in 1949 during the post-war reconstruction period, this bridge replaced previous structures and became essential for rebuilding local transportation infrastructure.

The bridge stands as a representation of German engineering excellence, demonstrating the technical capabilities of mid-twentieth century construction methods.

Vehicles access the bridge daily through multiple lanes, providing a direct route between residential areas and the commercial center of Duisburg.

The structure incorporates specific steel reinforcement techniques that allow it to support heavy industrial traffic while maintaining its architectural character.
