Gerickesteg, Steel arch footbridge in Moabit, Germany.
The Gerickesteg spans 70 meters across with a width of 5 meters, connecting both sides of the Spree River through its steel structure.
Originally constructed in 1914 and opened in 1915, the Wehrmacht forces destroyed the bridge in April 1945 during the Battle of Berlin.
The structure, designed by architect Bruno Möhring, represents the early twentieth-century German engineering methods through its steel arch configuration.
The bridge serves as a direct pedestrian route between residential areas, reducing walking time for locals crossing the Spree River.
The reconstruction after World War II maintained the original design specifications while incorporating modern safety standards for pedestrian traffic.
