Lorraine Bridge, Road bridge in Breitenrain-Lorraine, Switzerland.
Lorraine Bridge is a concrete and stone arch bridge that crosses the Aare River in Bern. It carries multiple vehicle lanes and pedestrian paths connecting the city center with the Lorraine neighborhood.
Built between 1928 and 1930, the bridge replaced an earlier iron crossing at this location. This construction period shaped the design that remains visible in its structure today.
The bridge forms part of the cultural properties list in Bern's Breitenrain-Lorraine district, reflecting the engineering advancement of Swiss infrastructure in the 1930s.
The bridge is fully accessible for vehicles and pedestrians and handles daily commuter traffic. Heavy congestion can occur during peak hours, so timing your crossing is helpful.
In the early 1940s, nearby construction work caused instability in the bridge's supports. This incident left marks on the local history of the city's infrastructure.
