Dyssebroen, Wooden bridge in Freetown Christiania, Denmark
The 60-meter long Dyssebroen spans across Stadsgraven, connecting the urban Christianshavn section with the rural Amager Side of Freetown Christiania in Copenhagen.
German journeymen from Ax & Kelle constructed the current bridge in 1998, utilizing intact underwater sections of the previous military bridge as foundation.
The bridge reflects the self-built nature of Freetown Christiania, as local residents designed and maintain it without professional architectural involvement.
The structure accommodates both pedestrians and cyclists, featuring two semi-circular extensions with benches where people can rest while crossing.
The bridge incorporates Douglas-fir timber throughout its construction, demonstrating traditional Scandinavian engineering techniques in modern urban infrastructure.
