Storstrøm Bridge, Road and railway bridge in Vordingborg Municipality, Denmark
The Storstrøm Bridge is a dual-purpose crossing carrying both road and rail traffic across a strait of about 3.2 kilometers (2 miles). Its through arch design includes a main span of 136 meters (446 feet) that allows ships to pass underneath.
Opened in 1937, the bridge represented a major step forward for Denmark's transportation network at that time. It replaced earlier ferry services and changed how people and goods moved across the water.
The bridge has become woven into local identity as a symbol of connection between separated communities. It allows people to move freely between the islands and mainland, shaping how the region functions as one.
The crossing is open to both vehicles and trains daily, with ongoing maintenance keeping it in working order. You can walk or drive across it, and there are viewpoints along the way where you can stop to take in the water and the landscape.
After opening, this crossing held the record as Europe's longest bridge for nearly three decades, drawing attention from engineers around the world. This achievement showed what Danish engineering could accomplish in the 1930s.
