Christ & Gantenbein, along with many other firms, have designed and planned the New Aare Bridge in Aarau, Switzerland.

The new Aare Bridge in Aarau, Switzerland, designed by the planning team of Christ & Gantenbein, WMM Ingenieure, Henauer Gugler and August + Margrith Künzel Landschaftsarchitekten, replaces a concrete bridge from 1949.

The new structure blends organically into Aarau's distinctive cityscape and the natural environment of the Aare River while strengthening the region's transportation network.

As a comprehensive bridge and riverbank design, this project creates an appealing urban space and, with its distinctive, elegantly curved arches, becomes a new landmark.


This project has been longlisted in the infrastructure and transport project category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
