Brudermühl bridge, Road bridge in Sendling district, Munich, Germany.
Brudermühl bridge is a road structure spanning the Isar River with three main sections that form part of the Mittlerer Ring system. The bridge accommodates both vehicle and foot traffic, enabling continuous connection between the eastern and western zones of the Sendling district.
A first bridge was moved here in 1904 when the old iron bridge was relocated during the rebuilding of the Wittelsbacherbrücke. The bridge and street are named after the Brudermühle, one of three mills on the Dreimühlenbach. Badly damaged in 1943, it was rebuilt in 1953 by Dywidag for the Mittlerer Ring, reusing the old piers and abutments and using prestressed concrete in Munich for the first time.
Since 1996, young artists have repainted the concrete piers of the Brudermühlbrücke once or twice a year under the DÖSENÖFFNER project (formerly ISART) of the Kreisjugendring München-Stadt. The name refers to the mill, not the street: bridge and road are named after the Brudermühle, one of three mills on the Dreimühlenbach.
The bridge is passable at all hours and offers wide, marked pathways for both vehicle and pedestrian traffic. It is best to cross during dry conditions, as surfaces can become slippery when wet.
The bridge's concrete piers have been repainted with graffiti once or twice a year since 1996 under the DÖSENÖFFNER project (formerly ISART) of the Kreisjugendring München-Stadt, so returning visitors see different work each time.
