Benno-Ohnesorg-Brücke, Concrete bridge in Linden-Limmer, Germany

The Benno-Ohnesorg Bridge spans the Ihme River, connecting Calenberger Neustadt with Linden-Mitte through a 67-meter-long modern construction with curved side forms.

Originally built in 1493 as a wooden structure, the bridge underwent multiple reconstructions, including a stone version in 1698 and steel reinforcement in 1912.

The bridge received its name in 1992 to commemorate Benno Ohnesorg, a student from Hannover who was shot during protests in West Berlin in 1967.

The structure serves as a central connection point for pedestrians, cyclists, and public transportation, linking the Gustav-Bratke-Allee, Humboldtstrasse, and Adolfstrasse intersections.

The reconstruction from 2008 to 2013 moved the load-bearing structure to the eastern riverbank, implementing a broader design to accommodate modern traffic requirements.
