Stamp Issue : 1966-09-30 

Grand Duchess Charlotte Bridge is a road bridge in Luxembourg City, in southern Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. It is named after Charlotte.
It carries the N51 across the Alzette, connecting the Avenue John Fitzgerald Kennedy, in Kirchberg, to Boulevard Robert Schuman, in Limpertsberg.
Charlotte Bridge was built in 1966, with a length of 355 meters, width of 25 meters and height of 85 meters, to allow electrical train to pass through. Due to the fact that it is made from steel, it appears grand in appearance. Also known as the Red Bridge from its red body, it looks like a rainbow that passes by the grand canyon.


夏洛特大公爵夫人大橋是盧森堡大公國南部盧森堡市的一座公路橋樑。它得名於夏洛特。
它承載51號國道跨越阿爾澤特河,連接基希貝格的約翰‧菲茨傑拉德‧甘迺迪大道和利姆帕茨貝格的羅伯特‧舒曼林蔭大道。
夏洛特大橋,建成於1966年,長355公尺,寬25公尺,高85公尺,電氣火車穿橋而過。因為橋架採用鋼鐵結構,顯得雄偉壯觀,夏洛特大橋又稱紅橋,它紅色的橋身像一道彩虹跨越大峽谷。
