Friedensbrücke, Transportation bridge in Alsergrund and Brigittenau districts, Vienna, Austria

The Friedensbrücke spans across the Danube Canal, connecting the 9th district of Alsergrund with the 20th district of Brigittenau in Vienna.

The bridge received its current name in 1926, changing from Brigittabrücke to commemorate the Peace Agreement of Saint Germain following World War I.

The name change from Brigittabrücke to Friedensbrücke reflects the shift in Vienna's public spaces naming from imperial references to peace-focused designations.

The bridge accommodates both tram lines 5 and 33, plus vehicular traffic, while the U4 underground station provides additional transportation connections.

The structure serves as one of Vienna's combined tram and road bridges, maintaining its dual transportation function since the post-World War II reconstruction.
