Theodor-Heuss-Brücke, Reinforced concrete road bridge in Heidelberg, Germany

The Theodor-Heuss-Brücke spans across the Neckar River, connecting the Old City district with Neuenheim through its 200-meter-long concrete structure.

Originally constructed in 1877, this bridge replaced earlier wooden structures dating back to Roman times and underwent reconstruction following World War II damage.

The bridge features a bronze monkey statue holding a mirror, which has become a central element in local traditions and tourist interactions.

Standing 7 meters high, this bridge serves as a primary crossing point for vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians traveling between central Heidelberg and northern districts.

The bridge includes specific viewing spots that offer direct perspectives of the Neckar River and the surrounding architectural landscape of Heidelberg.
