as far as i remember, the second bridge of the waterway crossing of mittellandkanal and weser near minden was not there when i visited the place at the beginning of the 1990s... but i still like it, a ship on a bridge is really a fantastic picture.

in magdeburg another such waterway crossing is intended to be finished in 2003 - almost 70 years after its construction began. the project is titled "deutsche einheit nr.17". a bridge from the dark past to the lighter present...?
