Tausendfüßler, Road bridge in central Düsseldorf, Germany
The elevated road structure stretched 536 meters with a main and secondary branch, supported by Y-shaped steel pillars through the city center.
Built between 1961 and 1962, the concrete bridge served as a vital north-south traffic connection in Düsseldorf until its demolition in 2013.
The structure received protection status in 1993 as a technical monument, forming an architectural ensemble with the Thyssen building and the Theater.
The bridge transported vehicles above street level, connecting the northern district to the center without intersections or traffic congestion.
A demonstration of 10,000 citizens in 1961 influenced the final design of this elevated road, which received its name from its multiple support pillars.
