The Graf-Henrich-Brücke is a building in the city of Wernigerode . The bridge over which Ilsenburger Straße leads spans the Holtemme near the Westerntor train station .

The name of the bridge took place on November 20, 2008 in the presence of the Lord Mayor Peter Gaffert , the local historian Uwe Lagatz and numerous representatives from administrations, companies, the city council and the Harz Club . At the same time, this event marked the end of the expansion of Ilsenburger Strasse, which had been modernized within ten years for 2.9 million euros.

The previous building in the 19th century was a wooden bridge which, as part of the renovation in 1840, was given the name of Count Henrich zu Stolberg-Wernigerode , who was then ruling, at the expense of the Count's administration : Henrich-Brücke . The previous name was supplemented in 2008 by adding Graf- .
