Friedrich-Ebert-Brücke, Suspension bridge in Ruhrort district, Duisburg, Germany
The Friedrich-Ebert Bridge extends 635 meters across the Rhine River, connecting the districts of Ruhrort and Homberg in northern Duisburg.
Constructed in 1954 to replace the Admiral-Scheer Bridge, which German forces destroyed during World War II in March 1945.
The bridge bears the name of Friedrich Ebert, the first democratically elected President of Germany, reflecting the post-war democratic transformation.
The bridge carries the L140 state road and serves as the sole non-highway crossing point in northern Duisburg for vehicles and pedestrians.
The structure features two preserved towers from the original 1907 bridge, integrated into the current cable-stayed design spanning both Rhine River and Vincke Canal.
