The Oberbaum Bridge is a striking double-deck bridge in Berlin, Germany, that spans the River Spree, connecting the districts of Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg. Known for its distinctive Gothic Revival architecture, the bridge features vibrant red brick towers and turrets, making it a prominent historical landmark. Originally built in the late 19th century, it has undergone several reconstructions, especially after being damaged during World War II. Today, the upper deck carries the U1 U-Bahn line, while the lower deck is used for vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
