Havelbrücke Werder, Highway bridge in Werder, Germany
Havelbrücke Werder is a highway bridge crossing the Havel River in Brandenburg, linking two sections of the A10 motorway. The structure was designed to support both regional and long-distance traffic on this major transportation corridor.
Construction began in 1936 with specific engineering requirements for river navigation. The structure survived World War II undamaged and has served its original purpose continuously since completion.
The bridge development included consultation with the Imperial Yacht Club to ensure proper clearance for sailing boats with masts up to 6 meters.
Expect regular motorway traffic when crossing, particularly during peak hours. The smoothest passage occurs outside rush times when traffic flow is lighter.
Unlike many other structures in the region, this bridge remained intact throughout World War II and continues its original function today.
