Hängebrücke Weimar, Suspension footbridge in Weimar, Germany
The Hängebrücke spans across the Ilm River with iron eyebar main cables, connecting both sides of the park with its 14.8-meter length construction.
Built in 1833, this structure holds the distinction of being Germany's oldest operational suspension bridge, featuring an engineering design with two different sags.
The footbridge stands within the park connected to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, integrating the natural landscape with German literary heritage.
The bridge underwent a thorough inspection in 2017, maintaining its status as a functional crossing point for pedestrians and cyclists in the Weimar park system.
The structural design incorporates different cable tensions on each side, creating an asymmetrical engineering solution that remains effective after 190 years.
