Guided Story
Look up at those arches above you. They've witnessed over a century of history. Imagine the wooden bridge that once stood here, opening for ships before Richard Wolffenstein's stone masterpiece took its place. To your right, the Roßstraßenbrücke stands as a silent witness to history. When the bombs of World War II fell, this bridge was badly damaged, yet here it stands again, restored and resilient. Behind you, the Spree reflects the light, whispering tales of old. Can you hear the echoes of the past in the gentle flow of the river?
