The Oberbaum Bridge spans the River Spree and links the Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg districts. It is a double-deck structure, carrying both road traffic and railway lines, and is recognized for its distinctive arches and silhouette. The bridge holds historical importance as a former border crossing during Germany's division and has become a symbol of reunification.

Constructed originally in the late 19th century and rebuilt after wartime damage, the bridge features architectural contributions from Otto Stahn and Santiago Calatrava. It is noted for its stone construction and multi-level design, combining functionality with visual appeal.

Today, the bridge is wheelchair accessible and serves not only as a vital transport link but also as a filming location and popular sightseeing spot, offering scenic views of the city and opportunities for photography.
