The steel railway truss bridge is simply called Südbrücke and connects Mainz across the Rhine with Gustavsburg. A curiosity: The northern of the two towers made of red brick at the western (Mainzer) end of the bridge is inhabited.

A beautiful bike path along the Frankfurt - Mainz railway line. On the Hessian side is a viewing platform at the bridge portal. There you can linger and enjoy the view of the Mainz harbor and the waterfront.
