History
The bridge opened in 1970 as Denmark's first major suspension bridge. It represented a new chapter in Danish engineering and construction technology.
Culture
The bridge connects Jutland and Funen, shaping the daily experience of people who travel between the two regions. For many Danes, it has become a familiar landmark that ties their communities together.
Practical
The bridge accommodates cars and trucks across its six lanes while allowing ships to pass underneath. The central opening provides sufficient clearance for boats to navigate safely below.
