Laves Bridge in Welfengarten

Laves bridge with lens mount in Welfengarten
The Lavesbrücke in the Welfengarten in Hanover is one of originally two pedestrian bridges in the Welfengarten in the north of the city . The bridges were constructed in 1843-46 with the participation of the leading architect of the Kingdom of Hanover - Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves - to cross the former graft. The bridge was built during the existence of Montbrillant Castle , the predecessor of the Welfenschloss .
The pedestrian bridge is supported by the " Laves beam" , a lens mount whose invention is attributed to Laves.
