Description
View from the Johan van Valkenburgh Bridge towards the tropical greenhouses situated in the Old Botanical Gardens, Hamburg.
The bridge is named in honour of the Dutch military engineer (c.1575−1624) who built fortresses. He is known for building the Bastion Henricus which was a fortification around Hamburg.
The Wallgraben Lake, beneath the bridge, fills a portion of the valley of the old city moat.
