The Kohlbrand Bridge (German: Kohlbrandbrucke) is a cable-stayed bridge in Hamburg, Germany,[2] which connects the harbor area on the island of Wilhelmsburg between the Norderelbe and Suderelbe branches of the Elbe river with motorway 7 (exit Waltershof). It bridges the Suderelbe, here called Kohlbrand, before it unites with the Norderelbe again. The bridge was opened on 9 September 1974. See also
