Reichenbachbrücke in München

The Reichenbachbrücke is an arch bridge in Munich that spans the Isar River, built from concrete with Muschelkalk stone details. Its structure connects the southern and eastern parts of the city center.

The structure was designed in the early 1900s to handle growing traffic across the Isar River. Its completion was an important step in improving transportation connections in southern Munich.

The bridge is named after the nearby Reichenbachplatz and connects two active neighborhoods on either side of the river. It has become a natural part of daily movement through the city for residents and travelers alike.

The crossing is open to pedestrians and vehicles and provides a direct route between the riverbanks. The surface is well maintained and may become slippery during rain or snow.

The structure combines concrete with Muschelkalk stone in an unusual way that was advanced for its time. This material combination is clearly visible in the decorative elements and cladding of the bridge.
