About Johanniterbrücke
The Johanniterbrücke is the third oldest Rhine bridge in the Swiss city of Basel. The iron bridge was built within two years and opened on July 15, 1882.

It was one of the architectural wonders in this area and also this bridge makes transportation if this area is easy.Address : Johanniterbrücke, Basel, Switzerland
