Nilkheimer Mainbrücke, Railway bridge in Aschaffenburg, Germany.

The Nilkheimer Mainbrücke spans 274 meters across the Main River, featuring two sandstone arch bridges and a central steel truss section supported by a river pier.

The Royal Bavarian State Railways constructed this bridge in 1910, establishing a vital connection between Aschaffenburg-Süd station and Höchst in Odenwald.

The bridge received recognition as an architectural heritage monument in Bavaria, with its Art Nouveau sandstone elements representing early 20th-century engineering methods.

This single-track railway structure maintains a clearance height of 8.55 meters and serves the industrial area of Nilkheim-West and the State Harbor.

Four memorial pillars created by sculptor Florian Wehner stand on the western bank, commemorating the bridge's railway heritage since 2010.
