Portsmouth Damm is a 97-metre-long (318 ft) structure located in the Inner Harbour of Duisburg, Germany.[1] It was completed in 1998.[1] It links both sides of the Inner Harbour, whilst also separating the rear harbour which is maintained at a higher level.[2] On 18 August 2000 it was named after the English city of Portsmouth, with which Duisburg had been twinned for fifty years.[3] The architects were Norman Foster and Partners.[4]
