Kennedybrücke

Standing on the Kennedy Bridge, you're on a remarkable piece of engineering. This drawbridge carries a six-lane road over the Geeste. Look up and notice the massive structures that allow the bridge to open and close for traffic. Below you, the storm surge barrier protects the city from flooding during storm tides. This dual purpose is vital for Bremerhaven's safety and traffic flow. If you glance northeast, you'll spot the Historical Museum Bremerhaven. It's a great place to learn more about the rich history of this fascinating city.
