The Dyckerhoff Bridge is a pedestrian bridge in Wiesbaden that spans the port exit of the Schiersteiner Hafen (Rhine kilometer 506.0) with a 96.40 m wide arch. The structure, erected in 1967, is a prestressed concrete structure that was produced using cantilever and for the first time in Germany, a large part of lightweight concrete was used to reduce loads .
The planning and construction of the bridge began three years earlier (1964) when the cement plant of the same name celebrated its 100th anniversary and the bridge was donated together with the city of Wiesbaden.
