Limfjordsbroen

The Limfjordsbroen bridge extends 540 meters across the Limfjord waterway, connecting the cities of Aalborg and Nørresundby with four traffic lanes and pedestrian paths.

Construction of the bridge occurred between 1930 and 1933, replacing a previous pontoon bridge from 1865 that served as the first fixed connection between the two cities.

The bridge opening ceremony in March 1933 gathered 30,000 spectators, marking a significant moment in the development of Northern Jutland's infrastructure.

The bridge structure includes a 21.4-meter width and features dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians on both sides, accommodating multiple transportation modes.

Before construction completion, engineers conducted a load test by positioning 48 fully loaded trucks on the bridge's movable section to verify its structural integrity.
