Germany, Berlin, Oberbaum Bridge, Summer 2024

 

The Oberbaum Bridge (German: Oberbaumbrücke) is a double-deck bridge crossing Berlin's River Spree, considered one of the city's landmarks. There is a bridge here from 1732, originally it was a wooden one and then it was modified in the actual one after the 1879. It links Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg, former boroughs that were divided by the Berlin Wall, and has become an important symbol of Berlin’s unity. The lower deck of the bridge carries a roadway, and the upper deck carries Berlin U-Bahn line U1. The bridge appears prominently in the 1998 film Run Lola Run.
