Waggonbrücke Heiligenhaus, Railway bridge in Heiligenhaus, Germany
The Waggonbrücke Heiligenhaus spans 20 meters in length and 3 meters in width, featuring a repurposed Deutsche Bahn flat wagon mounted on supports.
Installed on June 26, 2009, this bridge represents the first railway carriage bridge in Germany, constructed near the former Heiligenhaus train station.
The bridge received recognition from the North Rhine-Westphalia Chamber of Engineers in 2010 for its innovative engineering design and sustainable reuse concept.
The structure accommodates both pedestrians and cyclists as part of the Panorama Cycle Path network, connecting various routes through the Düsseldorf district.
The bridge retains all technical components of the original Rgs-w 672 railway car, including buffers, traction devices, and brake systems.
