Passerelle Debilly is the footbridge immediately to the north of Pont d'Iéna, the bridge in front of the Eiffel Tower. It connects quai de New York on one end to quai Branly on the other.

Passerelle Debilly was built in 1900 for the anticipated pedestrian traffic for the 1900 World's Fair. It was designed by Jean Résal, the same designer of the Pont Alexandre III and the Viaduc d'Austerlitz.

Passerelle Debilly is made of metal, with two stone piers at either ends. It is finsihed with dark green ceramic tiles to create the appearance of waves. Passerelle Debilly was included in a supplementary registry of historical monuments of Paris in 1966.
