Galcerán Bridge, Concrete bridge in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain.

The Galcerán Bridge spans 150 meters across the Barranco de Santos ravine, connecting the coastal neighborhoods of El Cabo and Los Llanos.

The bridge construction started on June 7, 1926, and concluded with an inauguration ceremony on October 19, 1928, during Miguel Primo de Rivera's visit.

The Casa del Carnaval museum stands beneath the bridge, presenting exhibitions about the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Carnival traditions and celebrations.

The bridge structure rises 20 meters above the ravine and serves as a primary connection point for vehicles and pedestrians in the city center.

Architects Antonio Pintor Ocete and Eduardo Torroja incorporated advanced reinforced concrete techniques that marked engineering progress in the Canary Islands.
