Hardly any other monument has become such a symbol for the city of Basel as the Mittlere Brücke. It was opened in 1226 and is one of the oldest Rhine crossings between Lake Constance and the North Sea. The bridge was initially used for local traffic, but in the 14th century, when the road over the Gotthard Pass gained international importance, it became an important Rhine crossing for long-distance trade. After the introduction of the electric tram, the old bridge had to make way for today's Mittlere Brücke from 1905. A copy of the old bridge chapel, the so-called Käppelijoch, where death sentences were carried out in the Middle Ages, still reminds us of the original structure. https://www.basel.com/de/attraktionen/mittlere-bruecke-05d9c3ec20

Seven bridges offer different perspectives on the city, connecting Kleinbasel with Grossbasel, the city with the Dreiland – with the Rhine as the gateway to the world. Strictly speaking, the Dreiländerbrücke is not one of Basel's bridges, but connects the German Weil am Rhein with the French Huningue.

The Mittlere Brücke is the oldest Rhine crossing in Basel. This part should not be missed. From here you have great views of the multifaceted Basel.
