    The so-called Lion Bridge, officially called the Schemerl Bridge, is part of the Nussdorf weir and lock system in Vienna and can also be crossed by bicycle. It was built in 1898 according to plans by Otto Wagner, one of the most important architects of Viennese Modernism. Particularly striking are the two bronze lions by the sculptor Rudolf Weyr, which gave the bridge its popular name. In addition to its practical function as a crossing for pedestrians and cyclists over the weir, it plays a central role in regulating the water flow between the Danube and the Danube Canal and is also considered an architectural landmark.
