    The Karl Lehr Bridge connects the Duisburg districts of Ruhrort and Kaßlerfeld. It crosses the Vincke Canal, the drained Kaiserhafen, the harbor canal and the Ruhr over a length of around 800 m. The first bridge at this location was opened in 1864. In 1949 the bridge was rebuilt with parts of Cologne's Hohenzollern Bridge after both bridges were destroyed in the Second World War.

    Since 2015, the Karl Lehr Bridge has been renovated in several construction phases. At the end of 2022, the new bridges over the Ruhr and the harbor canal were floated into their temporary positions. After the old Hohenzollern bridge parts are demolished, the new bridges will replace them.

        Schimanski filming location
        This bridge appears as a filming location in several films:
        - Thanner drives over this bridge in “Duisburg-Ruhrort” in the Ford Taunus with a half-asleep Schimanski in the passenger seat
        - in “The Swap” Thanner makes a skillful U-turn on the bridge in the Ford Scorpio, this time with Hänschen as a passenger
        - in "Tooth for a Tooth" Schimanski, emotionally at the limit, races through a construction site on this bridge in his Citroen CX
        - In “Moltke” Schimi gets off the tram here
        - in "The Squadron" Thanner's daughter Nina escapes from the killers across the bridge
        - in "Death in the Settlement" Hunger and Schimanski check the bridge in the Ford Mondeo as a possible part of an escape route
