Ummigsbachbrücke, Road bridge ruins in Seligenthal, Germany
The Ummigsbachbrücke features three concrete arches spanning 16 meters each, with only the eastern arch remaining after World War II destruction.
Built between 1925 and 1927 as part of the Wahnbachtal road project, the bridge connected Siegburg to Much across a 20-kilometer stretch.
The bridge construction provided employment during Germany's economic crisis, using a workforce program that required unemployed citizens to participate in public works.
The bridge location now serves as a starting point for an 8.3-kilometer hiking trail that leads through the valley beneath the Wahnbachtal dam.
The bridge's eastern arch stands as a solitary structure in the forest, while its companion Derenbach Bridge lies submerged in the Wahnbachtal reservoir.
