origin

The Nibelungenbrücke. For long time this was the only bridge over the Danube in Linz and the area. The bridge became to small after the introduction of the horses-tram, so plans were thought out and the new bridge was built in dark times. After WWII, the bridge was separating the sovjet-sector in Urfahr and the american sector in Linz, thus it became a symbol for reuniting after the austrian republic was founded again.
