Rheinbrücke Stein am Rhein

The concrete bridge spans 111 meters across the Rhine River where it flows from Lake Constance, connecting both sides of Stein am Rhein.

The current bridge, constructed between 1972 and 1974, replaced several previous structures, including a wooden bridge first documented in 1267.

The bridge marks the exact point where the Rhine section of Lake Constance transforms into the High Rhine, a significant geographical boundary.

The structure features two traffic lanes with a width of 11 meters and includes pedestrian walkways on both sides for safe crossing.

The bridge incorporates a 6 percent incline towards its center and stands at a navigational clearance of 3.6 meters above the water.
