Constructed at a cost of 9 million euros, this bridge connects Switzerland, Germany and France.

From the Swiss city of Basel, you can go to Huningue in France and Weil am Rhein in Germany through this bridge.

The portion of the tower above the river has no central pillar and is therefore considered a masterpiece of modern engineering.

This bridge can only be used by pedestrians and cyclists.
