Elbebrücke Roßlau

The Elbebrücke Roßlau is a steel bridge crossing the river with three traffic lanes, sidewalks, and a cycling path. The structure connects both banks with a straightforward design that handles daily traffic from vehicles and people.

A wooden bridge with multiple openings crossed this location since the 1500s. The present steel structure replaced these earlier versions with modern engineering.

The bridge connects two parts of the town and is part of daily life for local residents. You see a constant flow of cars, cyclists, and pedestrians crossing the Elbe on their way through the area.

The bridge is easy to cross on foot or by bicycle, with separate paths for both. The structure is generally passable year-round and sits on the main route between town sections.

The bridge recently received a specialized anti-icing system and a refreshed road surface. These modern upgrades make it one of the safer crossing options in the area.
