Floating bridge in Koblenz, Road bridge in Koblenz, Germany.
The floating bridge measures 325 meters in length and stretches across the Rhine River, connecting different sections of the Rhineland-Palatinate region.
Built in 1819 to improve transportation infrastructure, the bridge remained operational until March 1945 when it closed during World War II.
The structure stands as a cultural heritage monument, representing early 19th-century German engineering and transportation development along the Rhine River.
The bridge's floating design allows it to adjust to varying water levels while accommodating both vehicle and pedestrian traffic across the waterway.
A photograph from 1896 documents the bridge's original construction, showing its integration into the urban landscape of Koblenz during the industrial period.
