    One of the few bridges in Cologne. There is always a lot of traffic here. Unfortunately, the cycle paths on both sides are extremely bumpy (see photo). Unfortunately, I've slipped a few times as a result. Otherwise, I would like to see a guard rail for cyclists and pedestrians to feel safer. Otherwise very nice view of the cathedral and the crane houses; not to mention the Rhine.

    From the Severins Bridge you have a great view of the Olympic Museum, the Chocolate Museum and of course the cathedral. When there is a fair in Deutz, you can take great photos from the Severin Bridge, but there are also very nice motifs in the direction of Kranhäuser.

    The view from the bridge of the Rheinauhafen, the Museum Island and the cathedral is simply magnificent. But the bridge itself is also worth a closer look. If you like clear lines, you should take a look at the bridge from below from the Rheinauhafen, including the modern staircase.

    Tall bridge on the southern side of Cologne, both for driving and walking across; you can get some great views of the Cologne skyline.

    One of many bridges over the Rhine. Nothing spectacular in itself, but its views of the river and the city sights are very impressive.

  • 5/5 Lars K. 1 year ago on Google • 79 reviews
    Happy New Year 2023, the view from the Severinsbrücke from December 31st. to 01.01. is fantastic, to the north and south you can see almost the entire bank of the Rhine and can enjoy the fireworks on New Year's Eve in all directions. As a note, the road on the bridge was mostly closed past midnight. The city employees and the police were very friendly. Stay healthy.

    The bridge is a nice spot to get a good view of the old town of Cologne. It’s also not very packed compared to the other bridge.

    One of the bridges connecting the Köln city... crossing the amazing rhine river and overlooking the beautiful city and its unique architecture.

    Good

  • 5/5 Chrissy 6 months ago on Google • 101 reviews
    Very easily accessible bridge, you can also park directly underneath and then walk over the bridge, which I can really recommend because the view is breathtaking and the parking spaces in front of the city center are much cheaper. The bridge is very wide so there is enough space for pedestrians and cyclists. The constitution is also an eye-catcher for the children. We will cross this bridge again on our next visit. You can get up on foot via a spiral staircase or, a little further on, you can then ride the bridge at ground level, for example by bike. There wasn't that much traffic, probably due to the large number of bridges there ;-)

    Best view of Cologne when you drive over it from the Autobahn/Köln-Deutz. You can get great shots from the Dome, river Rhine and the Kranhäuser (unique glas buildongs). Be aware of the speeding camera on the bridge!

    (Translated by Google) A six-span steel cable-stayed bridge over the Rhine river in Germany. Built in 1959. The bridge is automobile pedestrian. Plus tram traffic. The total length is 691 meters. It got its name from the nearby church - St. Severin. (Original) Шестипролетный, стальной, вантовый мост через реку Рейн в Германии. Построен в 1959 году. Мост автомобильно пешеходный.

    (Translated by Google) The Severinsbrücke is more than a mundane building. It is a work of art of classic modernism. It offers many perspectives and an unusual sight.

  • 4/5 Maurice le T. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In the pleasing green of the radar protection paint, this bridge does what it should. Since it is ingeniously built so that it extends from one bank of the Rhine to the other, it also enables non-swimmers to cross the river. A pedestrian path, a bike path, two lanes and a light rail route for each direction ensure mostly heavy traffic. (Original) Im gefälligen Grün des Radarschutz-Anstriches tut diese Brücke was sie soll. Da sie genialer Weise so gebaut ist, dass sie von einem Ufer des Rheins bis zum anderen reicht, ermöglicht sie auch Nichtschwimmern eine Überquerung des Flusses. Ein Fußgängerweg, ein Radweg, zwei Fahrbahnen und eine Stadtbahntrasse für jede Richtung sorgen für meist regen Verkehr.

    (Translated by Google) If you are visiting Cologne for the first time and looking for a conveniently located car park outside of the city center, you will find just below the bridge in the district of Deutz just right. A walk on it is also always worth it the shortest connection to the HafenCity and to the Südstadt and thereby Alljene which cross this building a marvelous look at the city panorama. (Original) Wer Köln zum ersten Mal besucht und einen verkehrsgünstigen Parkplatz sucht außerhalb der Innenstadt liegt hier unterhalb der Brücke im Stadtteil Deutz genau richtig. Ein Spaziergang auf Ihr lohnt auch immer ist sie doch die kürzeste Verbindung zur HafenCity und zur Südstadt und dabei genießen Alljene die dieses Bauwerk überqueren einen herrlichen Blick auf das Stadtpanorama.

    (Translated by Google) Spectacular view and view of this bridge with its obliquely stretched ropes, which look very filigree. It was the first new bridge after the Second World War, built in the 1950s Wirtschafts-Wunder-Jahre, it has therefore earned its architectural award and has become a landmark that connects the old town with the district of Deutz. Tram 3 and Tram 4 have their own tracks. They stops at the Severinstraße and Suevenstraße are included in the connection. (Original) Großartiger Anblick und Ausblick auf diese Brücke mit ihren von der Stütze ausgehenden schräg gespannten Seilen, die sehr filigran erscheinen. Das war die erste neue Brücke nach dem 2. Weltkrieg, erbaut in den 1950er Wirtschafts-Wunder-Jahren, sie hat deshalb ihren Architekturpreis verdient und ist ein Wahrzeichen geworden, das die Altstadt mit dem Stadtteil Deutz verbindet. Die Tram 3 und Tram 4 haben hier einen eigenen Gleiskörper. Sie Haltestellen an der Severinstraße und Suevenstraße sind in die Verbindung einbezogen.
