A bridge over the Autobahn, 1937

A long, flat concrete bridge with a light railing rests on slanting piers across the carriageways, its embankments grassed and planted with young trees against a backdrop of pines; a man walks along the verge beneath it, and a lorry emerges from the shadow of the span onto the empty road. Bridges were designed with care under Todt, who employed architects such as Paul Bonatz to make the motorway a monument of the new state.

Period: c. June 26, 1937–October 8, 1937
