    The Überseebrücke is a complex of the Port of Hamburg with a covered pedestrian bridge, which leads from the flood protection system of the road Vorsetzen on a pontoon in Hamburg's low port, at the level of the former Jonah port, east of the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken.

      The Überseebrücke is moving
      Since 1927, the Überseebrücke has led from Vorsetzen to floating pontoons, which lie in the Elbe fairway and thus enable larger ships to moor close to the city. The bridge was built by H.C.E. on behalf of the Hamburg Süd shipping company. Eggers, which was already specialized in steel structures at that time.

        The bridge was built in 1927 on behalf of the shipping company Hamburg Süd by the steel construction company H.C.E. Eggers built, then called blockhouse bridge and served in particular as a jetty for passenger ships overseas. It was a nearly 119 -meter-long steel arch construction and reached down to the seafaring waters, in front of the pontoons were additional Vertäudalben so large ships could moor there. During the Second World War, the bridge was destroyed, partly because a floating crane rammed it. From 1957 to 1968 it was built on the renewal of the bridge, initially hung temporarily catwalks in the carrier, then put the bridge from old stocks of the Office of Electricity and Port Authority together.

        From the Überseebrücke ran until the 1970s, the ferry to England and long-haul cruise ships. Today, it mainly serves berth of the museum ship Cap San Diego, also make smaller cruise ships, warships domestic and foreign fleets and active museum ships here. During the port's birthday, she is regularly visited by historic sailing boats such as the Sedov.
