    The Friendship Bridge (French Pont de l'amitié) crosses the Saar south of Saarbrücken and connects the Saarland today Kleinblittersdorf with the Lorraine Grosbliederstroff.

    The idea of ​​creating a bridge between the two centuries-old places began in the 1860s; It was only realized in 1880. Destroyed at the beginning of the Second World War, it was rebuilt in 1964. Its present construction, a pedestrian bridge, was built in 1993.

    It impresses neither by architectural boldness nor by record-breaking proportions. On the other hand, its changeful history reflects the development of Franco-German relations from "hereditary hostility" to a close partnership within the European Union, especially since the entry into force of the 1963 Élysée Treaty. In part, the bridge was the border crossing between France and Germany, in between she had at times again and again the character of an inner-German or intra-French building.

      The small bistro "Coté Canal" is a wonderful opportunity to take a break and have a good time.
