Kappelenbrücke, Road bridge in Wohlen bei Bern, Switzerland.

The Kappelenbrücke stretches 174 meters across the Aare River, featuring a central concrete arch with smaller arched rows arranged in viaduct style.

The bridge, constructed in 1920, replaced an earlier structure from 1907 that served the first postal line between Bern and Detligen.

The bridge represents a connection point between the communities of Bern-Bethlehem and Hinterkappelen, supporting local transportation and social interactions.

The structure carries main road 235 from Aarberg around Frienisberg towards Bern, accommodating both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

The bridge spans above the Wohlensee reservoir, which was created through the damming of the Aare River around the time of its construction.
