Pfaffendorf Bridge, Road bridge in Koblenz, Germany.

The Pfaffendorf Bridge spans across the Rhine River, connecting central Koblenz with the districts of Pfaffendorf and Ehrenbreitstein through federal highway B49.

The original structure from 1864 served as a railway bridge for the Rhenish Railway Company until German troops destroyed it in March 1945.

The bridge features commemorative columns on the Rhine shores that display inscriptions about its foundation stone laying ceremony during King William I's reign.

The current bridge, opened in 1953, includes four traffic lanes along with dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians crossing the Rhine.

This structure stands as the oldest Rhine crossing point in Koblenz, marking the location where initial negotiations between Prussia and Nassau enabled its construction.
