Luitpold Bridge, Suspension bridge in Passau, Germany
The Luitpold Bridge is a road bridge that spans the Danube and connects different districts of Passau through a suspension design made of steel. The structure carries two lanes of traffic along with space for pedestrians crossing the river.
The bridge was completed in 1910 as part of early twentieth-century efforts to improve transportation in the growing city. Its construction reflected the modern infrastructure needs of Passau during that era.
The bridge is a familiar part of daily life for residents moving between different parts of the city. It has become an ordinary landmark that connects Passau's neighborhoods and blends into the rhythm of local traffic.
The bridge is easy to walk on with safe passage for pedestrians alongside vehicle traffic. The crossing is level and offers open views of the surrounding river landscape.
From the bridge you can see three rivers meeting at one point where they converge naturally. The Danube, Inn, and Ilz create a natural formation that looks especially striking when viewed from the middle of the crossing.
