Silence at night on the Moltke Bridge in Berlin by Silva Wischeropp

This long exposure of the Moltke Bridge in Berlin was taken on the night of 26 March 2016.
Long exposure night shot of the Moltke Bridge in Berlin's government district in the Tiergarten neighbourhood. This photographic architectural image was created by long exposure with the Nikon D90 camera.

The Moltke Bridge is a car and pedestrian bridge with a load-bearing steel structure on stone pillars and crosses the River Spree in Berlin's Mitte district, which here belongs to Moabit.
The bridge, faced with red sandstone, connects Willy-Brandt-Straße (until January 1998: Moltkestraße), which runs over it, with the street Alt-Moabit and thus the government and parliament district in the Spreebogen in the Tiergarten district with the Moabiter Werder and the main railway station in the Moabit district. The grounds of the Federal Chancellery are directly adjacent to the south-western end of the bridge.

The bridge, which is richly decorated with pictures and sculptures, is named after Helmuth von Moltke, the Chief of the Prussian General Staff from 1857 to 1888 and was built between 1886 and 1891 under the artistic direction of Otto Stahn. Damaged during the Second World War, the structure was reopened in 1947 and extensively restored and modernised between 1983 and 1986.

The Moltke Bridge is a listed building.
