The Alte Brücke in Frankfurt am Main was a vital link between the Old Town and Sachsenhausen since 1222, and the only stone bridge on the Main until the 19th century. It was destroyed and rebuilt at least 18 times, underscoring its historical importance. Its 13 arches made it the city's most significant structure.
