Haus-Knipp railway bridge, Railway truss bridge in Duisburg, Germany.
The Haus-Knipp railway bridge spans across the Rhine River, connecting Duisburg-Beeckerwerth and Duisburg-Baerl with its steel framework structure.
The bridge opened for freight traffic in 1912, was destroyed during World War II, and British pioneers helped reconstruct it to its original form in 1946.
This bridge represents German industrial engineering excellence, serving as a connection point for the transportation network in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The bridge underwent restoration in 2012 to enable two-track operation, enhancing its capacity for both freight and passenger rail services.
When constructed, its main span of 186 meters made it the longest truss bridge span in Europe, supported by 24 bridge trusses weighing 2,600 tons.
