Guided Story
Imagine standing on a bridge steeped in history. The Dammbrücke in Köpenick was constructed between 1984 and 1985, officially opened on April 10, 1986. Made of prestressed concrete, it's the modern successor to the first documented crossing of the Spree from the early 15th century. If you look northwest, you can spot the spire of St. Josef Church. This bridge stands west of where the original structure once allowed our ancestors to cross the Spree. The blend of tradition and modern engineering makes the Dammbrücke a remarkable spot. You might feel the past and present converging right here.
