Elbebrücke Hämerten, Railway bridge in Tangermünde and Schönhausen, Germany
The Elbebrücke Hämerten spans 810 meters across the Elbe River, connecting the regions of Tangermünde and Schönhausen through steel and girder construction.
In 1945, Wehrmacht forces destroyed the bridge during World War II, leading to the construction of a single-track replacement structure in 1947.
The bridge stands as part of the Berlin-Hanover high-speed railway line, representing German engineering and transportation development since the late 19th century.
The current bridge structure, completed in 1996, carries railway traffic between Berlin and Hanover, though pedestrians and cyclists cannot access the crossing.
Construction companies Krupp Industrietechnik and Philipp Holzmann built this bridge, which required a cornerstone ceremony in November 1992 to initiate the project.
