construction

The Alfredstrasse Bridge, built in 1901, replaced the wooden bridge at this point and is one of the lesser-known stone bridges in Hamburg. The Alfredstrasse Bridge serves as the entrance to the Marienkrankenhaus on the Hohenfeld side . It is 17.6 meters long and, although not very resilient, is in good condition.

The bridge is registered with the number 22289 as a cultural monument in the list of monuments of the Hamburg Authority for Culture and Media .

Naming

Alfredstrasse, after which the bridge was named, is named after the merchant's son Alfred Harder, whose family owned land in Borgfelde. His father Hermann Harder owned an extensive park-like area south of Lübecker Straße. In 1862, he and his brother-in-law August Zipperling began laying roads on this area in Hohenfelde and Borgfelde. In the course of this, they had the opportunity to name Alfredstrasse after the family member who was born in 1866. Alfred Harder died in 1884.
