Weidenhäuser Brücke

The Weidenhäuser Bridge extends 65 meters across the Lahn River with four spans constructed from robust sandstone blocks and engineering precision.

The original crossing at this location dates back to the 13th century, while the current structure was completed in 1892 as a major infrastructure project.

The bridge functions as a central meeting point for residents attending local festivals and community gatherings throughout the calendar year.

Following extensive renovations in 2019, the bridge accommodates both vehicle traffic and pedestrians, connecting the old town with the Weidenhausen district.

From its walkways, visitors can observe the Marburg Castle rising above a collection of medieval timber-framed buildings along the riverbank.
