Moselbrücke, Road bridge in Traben-Trarbach, Germany
The Moselbrücke is a road bridge that spans across the Mosel River valley between Traben and Trarbach, connecting the two communities on opposite sides. The structure features concrete construction supported by tall pylons that rise prominently above the surrounding terrain.
Construction of this bridge began in 2011 and finished in 2019, creating an important transportation link for the region. The project represented a significant infrastructure undertaking during that period in Europe.
The bridge's location near traditional vineyards generated discussions among wine producers about its effects on the regional Riesling production methods.
Visitors can walk or drive across the bridge and enjoy wide views over the Mosel valley during the crossing. The best viewing point is from the middle of the bridge where the landscape spreads out in all directions.
This structure ranks among Germany's tallest road bridges and carries thousands of vehicles daily. Crossing it offers a remarkable view of the Mosel landscape from a height rarely seen from ground level.
