Arthur-von-Weinberg Bridge

The Arthur-von-Weinberg-Steg is a pipeline, pedestrian and bicycle arch bridge built in 1981, which connects the Frankfurt district of Fechenheim with the Offenbach district of Bürgel.It was named in 1983 after the industrialist Arthur von Weinberg, who died in the Theresienstadt ghetto in 1943. Weinberg was an important patron and honorary citizen of Frankfurt, who was persecuted during National Socialism because of his Jewish descent.The pipelines running over the Arthur-von-Weinberg-Steg connected two chemical plants, the Cassella plant in Fechenheim and the former Offenbach plant of Hoechst AG. The jetty served e.g. from 1984 to transport the waste water from the Offenbach plant to the sewage treatment plant at the Fechenheim plant for cleaning. The Offenbach plant was shut down in 2010, the Cassella plant is now operated by the Allessa company in Fechenheim.de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur-von-Weinberg-Steg

The Arthur von Weinberg footbridge is used by pedestrians and cyclists alike. A great Main crossing was created here.

The jetty connects via the Main Offenbach with Fechenheim.
