Freundschaftsbrücke Klein-/Großblittersdorf, Pedestrian bridge between Kleinblittersdorf, Germany and Grosbliederstroff, France.
The Friendship Bridge spans 140 meters across the Saar River, connecting two municipalities with reinforced concrete construction and burgundy-painted railings.
The initial bridge from 1880 was destroyed during World War II by French forces to prevent German advancement, leading to its reconstruction in 1964.
The bridge demonstrates the evolving relationship between France and Germany following the 1963 Élysée Treaty, serving as a connection point for both communities.
The structure transformed into a pedestrian-only crossing in 1993, replacing the previous vehicle bridge that connected workers to industrial areas near Saarbrücken.
Gothic-style pylons and metal railings mark the transition between Germany and France, with artistic installations at the former border checkpoint.
