Gernsheim Bridge, Road bridge in Gernsheim, Germany.
The Gernsheim Bridge extends across the Rhine River with reinforced concrete construction and spans multiple sections supported by concrete pillars.
Engineers completed the construction of Gernsheim Bridge in 1940, but military forces demolished the structure in March 1945 during World War II.
The bridge represented a major infrastructure development for the Rhine region, connecting communities and supporting local economic growth before its destruction.
