Elisabeth Bridge, Suspension bridge in Budapest, Hungary
The Elisabeth Bridge spans 374 meters across the Danube River, connecting the Buda and Pest districts with its white steel structure and towers.
The original bridge from 1903 was destroyed in World War II, leading to the construction of a new modernist structure completed in 1964.
The bridge bears the name of Elisabeth of Bavaria, with her bronze statue standing near the Buda entrance as a memorial to the 19th-century empress.
The bridge carries six lanes of vehicle traffic and includes pedestrian walkways on both sides for crossing between March 15 Square and Döbrentei Square.
Located at the narrowest section of the Danube in Budapest, the bridge features hexagonal main cables made from thousands of steel wires.
