Doppelbognbrücke

Description

The Double-Arch Bridge (German: Doppelbogenbrücke) in Gelsenkirchen's Nordsternpark is one of the most famous pedestrian and bicycle bridges in the Ruhr area. This bright red structure spans the Rhine-Herne Canal and is celebrated as a masterpiece of modern engineering. Its most unique feature is the angle. While the two parallel steel arches cross the canal at a straight 90-degree angle, the actual walkway runs diagonally across them at a 45-degree angle. This makes the bridge look different from every viewpoint.

In 2013 I started with a new hobby. In the beginning it was difficult to get reliable information how to find streetart in public space. In 2016, I had the idea of sharing my information with other street art enthusiasts and started my blog “Streetartwalks”. When I found out about this new street art community at the beginning of 2018, I was immediately on board.
