Savukoski Bridge, Border bridge in Kymenlaakso, Finland.
The Savukoski Bridge is a concrete arch structure spanning about 60 meters across the water, connecting Pyhtää and Loviisa in southern Finland. Its design reflects the bridge-building techniques that were developing in the region during the early 20th century.
The bridge was built in 1927 as an early example of concrete arch construction methods developed in Finland between the wars. It represents an important period in regional infrastructure development.
The bridge forms part of the historical King's Road network, which served as a vital communication route between medieval trading centers in the region.
The crossing is accessible year-round for both vehicles and pedestrians moving between the two communities. The approach is straightforward and offers reliable passage in all conditions.
The structure stands within the Ahvenkoski area, where it serves as both a transportation link and a vantage point for observing local waterways.
