Tegeler Hafenbrücke, Steel truss footbridge in Tegel, Reinickendorf, Berlin, Germany

The Tegeler Hafenbrücke, known locally as the Sechserbrücke, is a 91-metre footbridge of two parts: a red-painted steel lattice truss with arched top chords spanning the 65-metre harbour entrance, and a grey concrete section over the mouth of the Tegeler Fließ. Two pavilion-like structures with narrow walkable galleries stand on the western tip of Humboldtinsel.

Completed in 1908 by architect Ernst Hornig, it replaced an older wooden crossing and was designed to provide safe pedestrian access across the harbor entrance. The structure reflects the industrial growth of Berlin's port infrastructure during the early 20th century.

The bridge served as a vital crossing point for people moving between the harbor shores, shaping how the neighborhood was connected. Today the steel structure reflects the area's historical dependence on water transport and waterfront activity.

The bridge has two parts: the red steel truss over the harbor entrance and a grey concrete section over the Tegeler Fließ. A staircase inside the eastern pavilion leads to Humboldt Island but is not open to the public. From the deck, look left toward Hasselwerder and right toward the Reiherwerder peninsula.

The bridge is protected as an architectural heritage monument, recognized by historians as an important example of early steel construction technique in Berlin. This protection ensures the original engineering elements are preserved rather than replaced with modern updates.
