The Carolabrücke is one of four Elbe bridges in the city centre of Dresden. It is bordered in the south in the Old Town by the Rathenauplatz and in the north in the Innere Neustadt by the Carolaplatz.
It is named after Carola von Wasa-Holstein-Gottorp (1833-1907), wife of King Albert.
The first bridge was built between 1892 and 1895 under Karl Manck and Hermann Klette. The 340-meter-long structure was designed for a 9.6-meter-wide carriageway with a double-track tramway and 3.2-meter-wide sidewalks on both sides. On the evening of 7 May 1945, a day before the end of the Second World War in Germany, units of the Waffen-SS blew up two river arches and two foreland arches on the right bank of the Elbe for the Red Army advancing from Albertplatz.
A barge (aakschuit) is a large and usually stemless vessel for use on inland waterways and large rivers.
The Elbe is one of the most important rivers in Central Europe.
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (Aschaffenburg, 6 May 1880 - Davos, 15 June 1938) is the most important representative of German Expressionism and is seen by many as the foreman of Die Brücke (The Bridge), an artists' collective that was active from 1905 to 1913 and later dissolved.
