history
Predecessor bridge
Even before the Thirty Years' War there was said to have been a bridge over the Leine in the vicinity of the forced mill in Lohnde for the Office of Blumenau . The mill and bridge north of the village in the area of today's Straße Am Wall were damaged in 1625 after the battle near Seelze when the Danish troops withdrew . When the snow melted in February 1627, the flood of the Leine tore the attached bridge with it.
Lohnder ferry
In 1698, the landowners of the first 13 houses in Lohnder were allowed to operate a ferry across the Leine at the mouth of the Lohnder Bach . The ferry northeast of the old village center made it easier for them to reach and cultivate their lands north of the river. Translating was only permitted for use during plowing, sowing and harvesting times and for transporting the cattle to pasture. In 1912 the ferry was old and brittle and needed to be replaced.
description
construction
Instead of a new ferry, the municipality of Lohnde had a bridge built between 1912 and 1914. Shortly before its completion, the bridge collapsed and had to be built a second time at the expense of the construction company.
In 1914, the bridge was named "Roßmannbrücke" by Reinhard Rossmann , the incumbent until 1920 District Administrator of the district Linden .
conservation
The bridge is a reinforced concrete - three-hinged arch bridge engineer technically interesting. It is the last of its type in Germany and is a protected technical monument .
A fundamental renovation of the bridge took place between 1987 and 1989. Among other things, the bridge received a new layer of shotcrete. The construction work cost around DM 660,000. The bridge was then approved for loads of up to 16 t .
The name "Roßmannbrücke" had never really been used. In 1990 the renovated bridge was given the new name "Lohnder Leinebrücke".
With new renovation work costing a total of € 85,000 in 2012, surfaces overgrown with moss and lichen had to be cleaned, longitudinal cracks in the east arch and hollow areas in the shotcrete as well as the corrosion protection on the reinforcement and railing had to be repaired.
