The Feenteichbrücke is a road bridge in the Hamburg district of Uhlenhorst . The bridge was designed by Franz Andreas Meyer and is listed in the list of monuments of the Hamburg cultural authority with the number 20568 as a cultural monument.
construction
Since 1861 a wooden bridge crossed the connection between Feenteich and the Outer Alster. It was replaced in 1884 by a stone bridge based on a design by the civil engineer Franz Andreas Meyer, which has been preserved in its former form to this day.
In the construction of the Feenteichbrücke , components were used that came from the Brooksbrücke and Kornhausbrücke , which were demolished and rebuilt in the course of the redesign of the Hamburg port by Meyer, and the simultaneous construction of the Speicherstadt . The Kornhaussbrücke was not completed until 1872. The granite parapet and the four pillars to the left and right of the bridge piers come from her, each of which carries a lantern.
Two lion sculptures come from the Brooksbrücke , which stand in the water on the Alster side and hold the Hamburg coat of arms between their paws. The elaborate parapets of the Feenteichbrücke have pointed arch-like recesses and are framed by pillars at the ends.
The Feenteichbrücke has the bridge number 172 and the structure number 2426 219. It is 7 m long and 15.6 m wide, and stands on a concrete foundation . The wing walls, clad with field stone, are also essentially made of concrete.
Name and location
The bridge is named after the street Am Feenteich . It leads the street Schöne Aussicht over the connection between the Feenteich and the Alster . The guest house of the Senate of Hamburg is located directly on the bridge .
