Old Echternach Bridge

The Old Echternach Bridge spans across the Sauer River with multiple stone arches connecting the towns of Echternach and Echternacherbrück between Luxembourg and Germany.

The bridge dates back to the Roman period when it served as a critical crossing point for merchants, armies, and travelers moving between different regions of the empire.

The structure represents a meeting point between two distinct regions, functioning as both a physical connection and a symbol of cross-border relations between Germany and Luxembourg.

Visitors can access the bridge through adjacent parking areas and walking paths, with informational panels explaining its construction and historical significance in multiple languages.

The bridge maintains its original Roman architectural elements while continuing to serve as an active crossing point, demonstrating the durability of ancient engineering methods.
