Beesenland Bridge

The Beesenlandbrücke is a railway and pedestrian bridge in the Hamburg district of Veddel . The bridge leads over the Peutekanal and is a listed building . The steel framework of the 57.18 m long bridge is made with so-called "Häselerträger" or K-framework. Alternative names are Beeselandbrücke and Besenlandbrücke .

The name of the bridge is derived from the term broom or its basic material, rushes . Because of the extensive vegetation, the Veddel was also called "Besenland Veddel".

The bridge, built around 1905, and the surrounding masonry along the Peutekanal is recorded by the Hamburg Authority for Culture and Media with the number 44456 in the list of Hamburg's cultural monuments.

The railway line of the Hamburg port railway on the bridge is no longer in operation, the sidewalk pedestrian path that leads the packer climb to the Peute is closed. However, pedestrians still use the middle section of the bridge to get to the Peute.
