Kuventhaler Talbrücke, Road bridge in Kuventhal, Germany
The Kuventhaler Valley Bridge is a two-level road bridge near Einbeck, with the upper deck carrying Federal Road 3 and a lower deck serving local traffic. The structure uses steel girders and concrete to span across the valley at different heights.
The bridge was built in 1957 to replace an older crossing and was opened by the Federal Transport Minister. It was constructed during the period of rebuilding and infrastructure growth in Germany.
The bridge shapes how people move through the valley and has become a landmark that locals recognize instantly. It connects communities on either side and defines the character of the landscape.
The bridge can be crossed by vehicles and pedestrians and is accessible during normal hours. Visitors should be aware that significant traffic flows on the upper level, and views from the lower deck may be limited.
The lower deck is supported by steel rods that hang from the upper structure, creating an innovative construction system. This design allowed the bridge to be built with minimal supports in the valley floor.
