More info: Kehl is a town in southwestern Germany, located on the river Rhine, directly opposite the French city of Strasbourg.
In 2004 Kehl and Strasbourg joined forces to host the first transboundary horticultural show, part of which involved connecting the French and German riverbanks by way of the Passerelle footbridge. The bridge’s two jetties, which are reserved for cyclists and pedestrians, meet in the centre of the Rhine, forming a platform 100 square metres in extent. The bridge was designed by Parisian architect Marc Mimram.
From the Passerelle des Deux Rives one can see the three other bridges crossing the Rhine between Strasbourg and Kehl: the Pont de l'Europe (road bridge), the Pont Beatus-Rhenanus (tram bridge) and the railroad bridge.
