Thomas Riess Profile picture The Maxbrücke is an arched bridge over the Pegnitz in the old town of Nuremberg. The three-bay sandstone ashlar bridge has tracery fillings made of cast iron and is considered the oldest stone bridge in the city[1]. It connects the Unschlittplatz in the old town of Lorenzen, south of the Pegnitz, with the Nägeleinsplatz in the old town of Sebald, to the north. The structure is located between the Trödelmarktinsel (flea market island) in the east and the Kettensteg (chain footbridge) in the west. The Maxbrücke was built by the Rothenburg master builder Jakob Grimm and completed in 1457. At that time it was called the Steinerne Brücke (Stone Bridge). Later, two gun rondels were added to defend the town against attacks from the river. In honour of the Bavarian King Maximilian I Joseph, the bridge was renamed Maxbrücke in 1810. The square Auf dem Neuen Bau near the north side of the bridge was given its present name Maxplatz at this time for the same reason.

Amateur photographer with advanced knowledge, retired for 6 years. Made my first experiences with photography as an employee at CANON and now, after many stations, take photos digitally with the Pentax K1 MK II and various lenses. My main focus is difficult to define. Actually everything that comes in front of my lens and doesn't look like a snapshot. I always try to tell a little story with my pictures or at least to get the viewer's imagination going.
