Krefeld-Uerdinger-Rheinbrücke
Krefeld-Uerdinger-Rheinbrücke, Steel bridge in Krefeld, Germany.
The Krefeld-Uerdingen Rhine Bridge spans 860 meters across the Rhine River, connecting Krefeld's Uerdingen district with Mündelheim in Duisburg through two traffic lanes.
German troops destroyed the bridge in March 1945 during World War II, leading to its reconstruction between 1949 and 1950 using original construction plans.
The bridge received monument protection status in 1987, representing a significant example of 1930s industrial engineering in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The structure requires extensive maintenance work starting July 2024, with traffic reduced to single-lane operation during repairs of concrete road plates.
During the initial construction in 1933, workers discovered a 27-million-year-old fossilized whale skull, now exhibited at the Ruhr Museum in Essen.
