Sternbrücke Magdeburg

The Sternbrücke Magdeburg is a pedestrian crossing built with a steel arch that spans the waterway with a clean, angular design. The slender steel elements frame views across the river while creating a simple silhouette against the sky.

The bridge was completed in the early 2000s as part of Magdeburg's urban renewal projects. Its construction addressed the need for better pedestrian connections across the water in a growing city.

The bridge takes its name from its star-shaped design and now serves as a daily crossing point where local residents move between different parts of the city. It shows how modern infrastructure becomes woven into the rhythm of urban life.

The footbridge is accessible year-round and provides a direct pedestrian route across the river. It connects major walkways on both sides, making it easy to navigate between different neighborhoods on foot.

The bridge features a steel arch design that creates varying visual effects depending on the time of day and weather conditions. The metallic surface catches sunlight differently throughout the day, giving the structure a shifting appearance.
