BrückenWeb - The Comprehensive Bridge Database for Bridge Enthusiasts Worldwide

Bridge cities fascinate with their unique architecture and the harmonious connection of water and construction art. In these cities, numerous bridges shape the cityscape, connecting shores, districts and people with each other – often creating romantic or impressive views. Particularly beautiful is the contrast between old stone bridges and modern constructions that span rivers, canals or sea arms.
A classic example is Venice, the city of canals, with over 400 bridges, from the famous Rialto Bridge to the delicate Bridge of Sighs. Hamburg, with its more than 2,500 bridges, is also one of the most bridge-rich cities in the world. Amsterdam is known for its picturesque canals and charming arch bridges that make the cityscape look like a painting.
These cities show how functional and at the same time aesthetic bridges can be – and how much they shape the feeling of life in a city.
