Dornröschenbrücke, Prestressed concrete footbridge in Linden-Limmer, Germany

The Dornröschenbrücke stretches 125 meters across the Leine River, connecting Linden-Nord and Nordstadt districts with a width of 7.50 meters.

Engineers completed this prestressed concrete structure in 1959, replacing a wooden bridge that was destroyed during the 1946 flood.

The bridge takes its name from a former cafe called Dornröschen, which stood approximately 200 meters downstream along the river bank.

The structure serves 7000 cyclists daily as part of the main route between residential areas and the Leibniz University Hannover campus.

Every September, residents of Nordstadt and Linden gather on the bridge for a traditional vegetable fight between the two neighborhoods.
