Freybrücke, Steel bridge in Wilhelmstadt, Spandau, Germany

The Freybrücke extends 157.9 meters across the Havel River, combining truss and arch engineering designs to support vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Engineer Karl Bernhard designed the original structure in 1909, drawing inspiration from Parisian road bridges for the architectural elements of the crossing.

The bridge received its name in 1913 to honor Adolf Frey, who contributed to the development of the Döberitzer Heerstraße transportation network.

The current structure, completed in 2017 at a cost of 33 million euros, serves 60,000 vehicles daily and allows container ships to pass underneath.

The bridge connects Pichelsdorf with the Pichelswerder peninsula while maintaining a pass-through height of 5.25 meters for water traffic.
