Teerhofbrücke, Pedestrian bridge in Bremen, Germany
The Teerhofbrücke is a pedestrian bridge that connects the Teerhof peninsula with the Schlachte promenade and Bremen's old town. The structure spans across the Weser River and features a varying width to accommodate foot traffic comfortably.
The bridge was designed following an architectural competition in 1992 by Bremen architect Dieter Quiram. It emerged from this competition as the winning design that shaped the structure we see today.
The bridge with its green structure and blue railings connects two important parts of the city where daily life unfolds. The wide stairway serves as an informal gathering spot during public events.
Access is made easy with elevators available during daily operating hours. This makes crossing convenient for people with mobility needs.
The bridge was specifically designed to allow river shipping to pass underneath. This height requirement was essential for commercial navigation on the Weser.
