    The old Levensau High Bridge was built at the end of the 19th century for railway and tram traffic. The new, eastern Levensau High Bridge was built about 90 years later as a motorway and is not accessible by bicycle. The old high bridge is still accessible and offers a breathtaking panorama of the Kiel Canal. Photographers will love this spot! The bridge also provides shelter for around 6,000 bats in winter. According to the Waterways and Shipping Authority, the bridge's technical service life is expected to end in 2024. Access is frequently closed due to construction work. It's best to check whether the bridge is currently accessible before visiting. Information is available at: wsa-kiel.wsv.de.

      It is an arched bridge that was the largest bridge when the canal was rebuilt. Striking are the wintering quarters of the bats at the abutments of the bridge.

        Of all bridges, this is truly one of the nicer! Always worth a photo 📷
        Unfortunately, the last days are numbered -
        after 125 years, this bridge will unfortunately be demolished again😢
        But
        still worth a photo 📷
