Tuomiokirkkosilta, Stone bridge near Turku Cathedral, Finland
The bridge spans 39.5 meters across the Aurajoki River, connecting both sides of Turku with its 25.9-meter width and solid construction.
Built in 1899, Tuomiokirkkosilta stands as an essential component of Turku's infrastructure development during the late nineteenth century expansion period.
The structure forms an integral part of Turku's historic center, linking various outdoor venues that host markets, concerts, and community gatherings throughout the year.
Located within two kilometers of central Turku, the bridge provides access to electricity supply points and water connections for events along the riverside.
Local residents distinguish the areas around the bridge using traditional dialect terms 'täl puol jokke' and 'tois puol jokke' for opposite riverbanks.
