Franz Josef Strauß Bridge, Road bridge in Passau, Germany.
The Franz Josef Strauß Bridge stretches 159 meters across the Danube River, connecting the districts of Heining and Hacklberg at kilometer 2230.10.
Construction of the bridge started in 1985 and concluded in 1988, with the official inauguration ceremony taking place in July 1989.
The structure received its name during the 1989 inauguration in recognition of Franz Josef Strauß, who served as Prime Minister of Bavaria.

Prior to its official naming, construction documents referred to the structure as Steinbachmühlbrücke, referencing a local sawmill near the construction site.
