The Holbeinsteg, built in 1990, is named after the Augsburg painter family Holbein. The nearly 150-meter-long suspension bridge, supported by two pylons, is the third Main Bridge in Frankfurt after the Ironbridge (from 1868) and the Fechenheim Arthur von Weinberg Bridge (from 1983), which is reserved for pedestrians and cyclists.

Fantastic view on the banks of the Main. On nice days, however, very full.

Holbein Bridge
AS+P Albert Speer + Partner, König and Heunisch engineers
1990

With an elegant sweep, the Holbeinsteg, a 210 meter long and 5.5 meter wide pedestrian and bicycle bridge with a span of 142 meters, connects 'Hibbdebach and Dribbdebach' - the northern, inner-city side of the train station district with the Sachsenhäuser Museumsufer to the south. The original suspension bridge was designed as part of the urban museum bank planning in the 1980s. The aim was the cultural integration of the opposite banks of the Main. Named after the Holbein family of painters from Augsburg (exhibits by the artist Hans Holbein can be viewed in the neighboring Städel Museum, see project 227), the Holbeinsteg is the contemporary counterpart to the neighboring Eiserner Steg from the 19th century (1868) and named after the Arthur-von- Weinberg-Steg in Fechenheim (1983) the third car-free Main bridge in Frankfurt. When crossing the suspension bridge, pedestrians feel the gentle sway of the steel structure and can enjoy the impressive view of the Main, the Museum Embankment and the skyline.
