🇩🇪【4K】HEIDELBERG • Karl Theodor Bridge • Walking Germany [Alemanha]

The Karl Theodor Bridge (German: Karl-Theodor-Brücke), commonly known as the Old Bridge (Alte Brücke), is an arch bridge in Heidelberg that crosses the Neckar river. It connects the Old City with the eastern part of the Neuenheim district of the city on the opposite bank. The current bridge, made of Neckar sandstone and the ninth built on the site, was constructed in 1788 by Elector Charles Theodore, and is one of the best-known landmarks and tourist destinations in Heidelberg.
Although the Karl Theodor Bridge was completed nearly 250 years ago, compared to the city of Heidelberg it is comparatively young. The nickname “Old Bridge” dates from the construction of the Theodor Heuss Bridge in 1877 (then known as the Friedrichs Bridge).[1] Since the thirteenth century there have been eight bridges on the site; the current bridge is built on their foundations. The bridge gate (German: Brückentor) at the south end of the bridge also dates from the Middle Ages.

A Ponte Karl Theodor (em alemão : Karl-Theodor-Brücke ), comumente conhecida como Ponte Velha ( Alte Brücke ), é uma ponte em arco em Heidelberg que atravessa o rio Neckar . Liga a Cidade Velha à parte oriental do distrito de Neuenheim, na margem oposta. A ponte atual, feita de arenito de Neckar e a nona construída no local, foi construída em 1788 pelo eleitor Charles Theodore e é um dos marcos e destinos turísticos mais conhecidos em Heidelberg.
Embora a ponte Karl Theodor tenha sido concluída há quase 250 anos, em comparação com a cidade de Heidelberg, é comparativamente jovem. O apelido “Ponte Velha” data da construção da Ponte Theodor Heuss em 1877 (então conhecida como Ponte Friedrichs). [1] Desde o século XIII, houve oito pontes no local; a ponte atual é construída sobre suas fundações. O portão da ponte (em alemão : Brückentor ) no extremo sul da ponte também data da Idade Média.

Die Karl-Theodor-Brücke, besser bekannt als Alte Brücke, ist eine Brücke über den Neckar in Heidelberg. Sie verbindet die Altstadt mit dem gegenüberliegenden Neckarufer am östlichen Ende des Stadtteils Neuenheim. Die Alte Brücke aus Neckartäler Sandstein wurde 1788 unter Kurfürst Karl Theodor als insgesamt neunte Brücke an dieser Stelle errichtet. Heute gehört sie zu den bekanntesten Sehenswürdigkeiten und Wahrzeichen Heidelbergs. Sie wird für den Fußgänger- und Radverkehr genutzt.
Mit einem Alter von kaum mehr als zwei Jahrhunderten ist die 1788 fertiggestellte Alte Brücke tatsächlich vergleichsweise jung. Ihren (inoffiziellen) Namen erhielt die Alte Brücke, nachdem 1877 mit der weiter westlich gelegenen Friedrichsbrücke (heute Theodor-Heuss-Brücke) eine zweite Neckarquerung geschaffen wurde.[1] Allerdings hatten sich an der Stelle der Alten Brücke seit dem 13. Jahrhundert acht Vorgängerbrücken befunden, auf deren Fundamenten die Brücke gebaut ist. Auch das Brückentor am Südende der Brücke existiert seit dem Mittelalter.
