Salzachbrücke, Steel truss bridge between Laufen and Oberndorf bei Salzburg, Germany-Austria.

The Salzachbrücke extends 166 meters across the Salzach River, featuring metal trusses that demonstrate early 20th-century engineering methods and techniques.

The construction of this international bridge was completed in May 1903, establishing a permanent connection between the German region of Bavaria and Austrian territories.

The bridge displays two distinct coats of arms on its structure: the Bavarian Kingdom emblem on one side and the Austrian Empire symbol on the opposite end.

Pedestrians and cyclists regularly use this border crossing point between Germany and Austria, with multiple marked cycling routes available in the surrounding area.

The bridge structure incorporates specific engineering elements from both German and Austrian architectural standards of the 1900s, reflecting a dual national influence.
