Hamburg is the city with the most, and especially some of the most beautiful bridges in Europe. Whether it is the Köhlbrand Bridge, this monumental structure that powerfully spans the Elbe and was awarded the title of "most beautiful bridge in Europe" by the European Convention for Steel Construction, or the various bridges of the Hamburg elevated railway, whose external design can certainly be described as tasteful and dignified: each structure has its own story and its own aesthetics. Eigel Wiese tells this in the present illustrated book, whose photos uniquely capture the craftsmanship of Hamburg's bridges.
