Eberhardsbrücke Tübingen

Eberhardsbrücke spans the Neckar River with two arches, measuring 81 meters in length and featuring extra wide sidewalks for pedestrian access.

The initial stone bridge at this location, constructed between 1482 and 1489 with five arches, stood for 400 years until its demolition in 1899.

The bridge bears the name of Graf Eberhard im Bart, the founder of Tübingen University, highlighting the connection between infrastructure and education.

Multiple bus lines utilize this crossing point, which includes designated sections for buses and bicycles, connecting various parts of the city center.

During World War II, the bridge survived potential destruction when a local innkeeper created a diversion that prevented the Wehrmacht from demolishing it.
