The new Fahlenbergbrücke is located on the edge of Berlin in the Treptow-Köpenick district, Müggelheim district . It spans the Gosen Canal . It connects Müggelheim with Gosen .

The bridge is dilapidated and cannot be repaired due to serious damage. The start of a replacement building is planned for 2020.

Surname

The addition New separates the bridge from the Fahlenberg Bridge , which runs 300 meters east over the Gosener Graben . Between the two was a forester's house built before 1800, named in 1861 after the hill "Der Fahle Berg" as "Forsthaus Fahlenberg", later "Revierförsterei Fahlenberg", today assigned to the Köpenick forestry office.

First bridge (1934)

The first New Fahlenberg Bridge was a steel truss bridge with a wooden deck and was completed at this point in September 1934 before the canal was built. After it was blown up by German troops in 1945, a makeshift bridge was built, the bridge from 1934 was then lifted and reused until it was demolished in 1983.

Second Bridge (1983)

The second New Fahlenberg Bridge was built in 1983 as a 38 meter long and 12 meter wide composite steel bridge . During renovation work in 2010 it turned out that this bridge had serious concrete damage and could not be permanently repaired.

Third bridge (planned)

The construction of the third New Fahlenberg Bridge is currently being prepared. First of all, a temporary bridge will be built for the construction period. Construction is to start in early 2020 (as of March 2019).
