Palmburg Bridge, Transport bridge in Kaliningrad, Russia
Palmburg Bridge was a steel and concrete structure that crossed the Pregolya River and connected different parts of Kaliningrad. It was designed for vehicle traffic and featured the straightforward engineering style typical of 1930s construction.
It was built in 1938 as part of the Berlinka route and functioned as a key transport link until January 1945. German forces destroyed the middle section during the war, and it was eventually removed from the river.
The bridge took its name from a nearby estate that featured a greenhouse where palm trees grew, showing the botanical interests of the landowner at that time.
The bridge remained partially operational with two lanes until 2012, when plans for a replacement crossing began. Today visitors can observe the remains from the riverbanks or by walking along the Pregolya if local access allows.
The central span collapsed into the Pregolya River during World War II, creating an underwater obstacle that affected military operations in the area. The remnants still lie beneath or partially above the water surface today.
