Brückenpark Müngsten and Müngsten Bridge

Short facts

  • Solingen

Impressive perspectives and lots of fun in the midst of beautiful nature Ever seen a bridge from below? At Brückenpark Müngsten, you can marvel at the foot of Germany's highest railroad bridge in a high arch.

The highlight: Germany's highest railroad bridge

Germany's highest railroad bridge has spanned the Wupper valley for more than 125 years. And despite its height of 107 meters and length of almost 500 meters, it doesn't look the least bit massive. Rather delicate and lightly floating. An impressive sight and a great photo opportunity!

The bridge park - enigmatically beautiful

Not high up, but right around you, between wide lawns and shady trees, there are plenty of activities waiting for you. The play and exercise trail with its curved slide, climbing net and ladder to heaven is perfect for young and old alike. The Müngstener Rätsel combines art and culture. Ten riddles are formulated on a steel platform, the answers to which can be found in the park.

Don't walk across the Wupper, float instead

Fancy a real adventure? Then don't miss out on this unique transporter bridge! It carries you and your family 64 meters across the Wupper to the other bank. But you'll have to work hard, because it works like a trolley, but with muscle power. But don't worry: the ferryman will give you a helping hand!

Haus Müngsten - the perfect place for an enjoyable break

Snack bar, bistro and restaurant with beautiful terraces directly on the Wupper: relaxation is guaranteed at Haus Müngsten. The magnificent view of the Müngsten Bridge, which is also reflected in the huge glass panes of the modern industrial design building, is always there.

Tip: The best place to start your trip to the bridge park is at Haus Müngsten. Here you will find all the important information you need to find your way around.
