Apollo Bridge

Why go

The inclined steel arch creates a strong profile from both riverbanks.

What to look for

• The inclined steel arch creates a strong profile from both riverbanks.
• Pedestrian and cycling paths keep the Danube visible throughout the crossing.
• The view shifts from historic skyline to modern waterfront development.
