Hiroshimasteg, Steel footbridge in Mitte, Berlin, Germany

Hiroshimasteg is a single-arch steel footbridge over the Landwehrkanal in Berlin's Tiergarten district, built in 1987. It rests on concrete abutments on both banks and crosses the water at a diagonal. Its two-hinged arch design follows the form of the first pedestrian footbridge on the site, an iron structure from 1834.

The current bridge was built in 1987, replacing an original iron structure from 1834 that was destroyed during World War II. The original bridge was named Lützowbrücke starting in 1885 before it was lost.

The bridge has borne its current name since 1990 as a memorial to the victims of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, displaying a brass plaque with inscriptions in Latin and Japanese. These inscriptions are visible to visitors and serve as a daily reminder of the connection between the two cultures.

The bridge crosses the Landwehrkanal diagonally, linking Reichpietschufer on the east bank with Lützowufer on the west, near the Japanese Embassy and the Bauhaus-Archiv. It rests on concrete abutments on both banks. A brass plaque on the east side at Reichpietschufer carries the name in Latin and Japanese characters.

The bridge stands at an angle across the Landwehrkanal, not straight over it, and rests on concrete abutments on both banks. Its two-hinged arch echoes the first pedestrian footbridge. A brass plaque on the east side at Reichpietschufer carries the name Hiroshimasteg in Latin and Japanese characters.
