Elbebrücke Roßlau, Steel road bridge in Dessau-Roßlau, Germany.
The Elbebrücke Roßlau stretches 287 meters across the Elbe River, featuring three traffic lanes, pedestrian paths, and a dedicated cycling lane.
The first wooden bridge at this location opened on December 24, 1583, spanning 300 meters with twelve openings across the Elbe River.
The bridge represents a vital connection point between Leipzig and Magdeburg, serving as a central transportation artery for the Saxony-Anhalt region.
The bridge maintains a navigation clearance of 5.42 meters at the highest water level, making it one of the lowest crossings along the Elbe River.
During extensive renovations in 2023-2024, engineers installed a specialized de-icing system and updated the road surface to enhance safety measures.
