A Walk Over the Eiserner Steg
Crossing Frankfurt’s Eiserner Steg footbridge offers visitors a striking contrast between the city’s rich history and its modern dynamism. Built in the late 19th century, the bridge links the bustling center with the charming Sachsenhausen district on the opposite bank of the Main River.
Views of Frankfurt
From its span, pedestrians take in sweeping views of the Römerberg’s medieval architecture alongside the glass towers of Frankfurt’s financial hub. The walk is short but filled with scenic moments—river reflections, passing boats, and the hum of city life echoing from both shores.
A Romantic Landmark
The Eiserner Steg is also famous for its "love locks," small padlocks that couples leave attached to the bridge rails as a symbol of affection. Beneath the bridge, sightseeing cruises depart regularly, offering another perspective of the city’s skyline and architectural landmarks.
A Gateway Between Eras
More than just a crossing, the bridge represents a meeting point of past and present—where Frankfurt’s cultural heritage and global character converge in one effortless stroll.
"Eiserner Steg stands not only as a bridge over the Main, but as a bridge between centuries of Frankfurt’s evolving identity."
