Kostheimer Brücke, Road bridge in Mainz-Kostheim, Germany
The Kostheimer Bridge spans 344 meters across the Main River, connecting the districts of Mainz-Kostheim with Ginsheim-Gustavsburg through Bundesstraße 43.
Constructed in 1887 with half-timbered arch supports, the bridge underwent reconstruction in 1947 following its destruction during World War II, adopting a Warren truss design.
The bridge forms part of the Rhine-Main Industrial Heritage Route and serves as a component of the Three Bridge Run alongside the Theodor Heuss and South bridges.
The structure includes separate paths for cyclists and pedestrians alongside the main roadway, maintaining a clearance of 6.40 meters above the water level.
Archaeological evidence reveals Roman bridge foundations from 374 CE near the current location, visible during extremely low water levels in the Main River.
