As you stand on the Jahrtausendbrücke, you're on a bridge that was inaugurated in 1929 for the city's millennium celebration. This road bridge is not just a passage over the Havel River; it is a piece of the city's rich heritage. To your right is the Old Town, with the New Town spreading out to your left.
