Hoge Brug

Hoge Brug is a bridge in Overschie that spans a waterway with metal construction and solid supports. It connects residential and commercial areas on either side of the canal.

It was built during Rotterdam's early industrial growth and played a key role in moving goods and workers through the area. The structure dates from a period when Overschie was a hub of factory activity.

The bridge is woven into daily life in Overschie, used by residents to reach shops and workplaces across the water. It reflects the practical engineering that shaped the neighborhood's development.

Pedestrians and cyclists use the bridge daily for crossing between both sides of the neighborhood. Watch your footing during rainy conditions, as the metal surface can become slippery.

The bridge holds protected monument status, recognized as an important example of industrial architecture. This designation shows how engineering work from the early 20th century continues to be valued today.
