Friedensbrücke, Steel road bridge in Frankfurt, Germany

The Friedensbrücke spans 287 meters across the Main River, connecting Baseler Platz in Gutleutviertel with Stresemannallee in Sachsenhausen through multiple traffic lanes.

Built between 1950 and 1951, this bridge replaced the previous Wilhelmsbrücke which had served the city from 1844 until its destruction during World War II.

A bronze sculpture titled 'The Dock Worker' from 1890 stands at the southern end, marking the location of the former Westhafen port area.

The bridge integrates vehicular lanes, tram lines, bicycle paths, and pedestrian walkways, maintaining a ship clearance of 6.85 meters beneath its steel structure.

As part of federal road 44, the bridge serves the Ebbelwei express tram service while offering cyclists different difficulty levels of riding routes.
