Zollamtssteg

The Zollamtssteg is a pedestrian bridge made of steel and stone that crosses the Wien River and connects different parts of Vienna. The structure shows robust construction with functional design typical of early 1900s architecture.

The bridge was designed and built around 1900 by architects Josef Hackhofer and Friedrich Ohmann. It represents engineering methods of that era and was later designated as a protected cultural monument.

The bridge is a protected monument that reflects engineering practices from the early 1900s. It connects pedestrians crossing the inner city and forms part of Vienna's daily routes for residents and visitors.

The bridge is easy to find as it crosses the Wien River at a central location and is accessible from several streets. When crossing, you can see the river below and observe how visitors and residents use the structure daily.

The bridge was a filming location for the 1995 film Before Sunrise and appears in a memorable scene. This connection to film history makes it a special place to visit for fans of the movie.
