Theißtalbrücke, Railway and highway bridge in Königshofen, Germany.

The Theißtalbrücke extends 507 meters across the Theiß Valley, supported by concrete pillars ranging from 15 to 40 meters in height.

The initial construction of the bridge commenced in 1939 as part of the motorway system connecting Oberhausen to Wiesbaden through the German countryside.

The bridge's design incorporates melaphyre stone cladding on its reinforced concrete pillars, representing the regional architectural preferences of the 1930s.

Modern travelers can experience both rail and road transport across the structure, with high-speed trains capable of reaching 300 kilometers per hour.

Three parallel bridges span the valley: the original 1939 structure, a 1976 addition for southbound traffic, and a 2000 railway bridge.
