Dam Bridge (Hamburg)
The dam bridge is a 25.90 meter long arch bridge over which the Alsterdorfer Damm in Hamburg 's Alsterdorf district crosses the Alster .
The dam bridge was built between 1915 and 1918 under the Hamburg chief construction director Fritz Schumacher . It is listed with the number 20319 as a cultural monument in the list of monuments of the Hamburg Authority for Culture and Media .
The bridge is also known as the Alsterdorfer Dammbrücke . Their bridge number is 247 and their structure number is 2326 076. The Alsterdorfer Damm was raised across the river meadows near the Alster between 1834 and 1836, originally led at this point over a wooden bridge and connected Alsterdorf with the Alsterkrugchaussee . In the course of the canalization of the Alster, which the city had implemented according to the plans of the Hamburg engineering department, the wooden dam bridge was finally replaced by a concrete bridge. The new dam bridge was built with hollow boxes in concrete. In order to disguise the building material, parts of the bridge were clad with stone . The bridge railing is made of natural stone.
