The Luckenberger Brücke is a road bridge over the Brandenburg Niederhavel in the urban area of Brandenburg an der Havel . It was formerly known as the New Havel Bridge and was built in 1890/91 to connect the Wilhelmsdorfer and Neuendorfer suburbs.
history
The bascule bridge at that time formed a new important connection between the urban expansion areas of the new town and the old town . It was built as a bascule bridge to allow shipping to continue to pass the waterway, which was important at the time and which only lost its importance in November 1910 with the opening of the Silo Canal . The old bridge was replaced by a new one in 1923 according to plans by Moritz Wolf, because the bridge could no longer cope with the traffic and the construction of the silo channel meant that a bascule bridge with its technical problems was no longer necessary. Like many other bridges, the Luckenberger Brücke was destroyed at the end of the Second World War, but was restored in 1945. It has a total length of 58.60 meters and spans the Brandenburger Niederhavel in a slim shape without supporting pillars in the water and, due to its design and its appropriate bridge clearance height, does not pose any problems for today's passenger and sport shipping on the river.
