Karl-Carstens-Brücke, Road bridge across Weser River in Bremen, Germany.

The Karl-Carstens-Brücke extends across three sections, including a 201-meter span over Werdersee, a 242-meter elevated road through garden areas, and a 175-meter Weser crossing.

Construction of the bridge started in November 1966, opening for pedestrians and cyclists in June 1970, followed by general traffic access in September 1971.

The bridge received its current name in 1999 to honor Karl Carstens, a former German Federal President who originated from Bremen.

The structure underwent extensive renovation work in 2007, with a total cost of 4.5 million euros, ensuring continued safe passage for vehicles and pedestrians.

Local residents refer to it as Erdbeerbrücke due to the former strawberry plantations that existed in the Habenhausen district.
