Wehrsteg

The Wehrsteg is a pedestrian bridge made of reinforced concrete that spans a waterway in Munich. The structure uses a simple beam design and provides a level surface for foot and bicycle traffic.

The structure was completed in 1966 and provided Munich residents with a new crossing over the waterway. Since then, the bridge has served as a dependable connection in the city's network.

The bridge is part of the daily network that residents use to move between neighborhoods. It connects people and places in a straightforward, practical way without motor traffic.

The bridge is flat and easy to walk, suitable for pedestrians and cyclists of all abilities. The path is wide enough for both groups to move side by side.

From this bridge, you can see the St. Lukas church, which shapes the city skyline. This unexpected view shows how the structure sits within the religious landscape of the city.
