Almö Bridge

Almö Bridge is a road bridge in Stenungsund Municipality that links the island of Almön to Källön across the water. The structure features two parallel steel tube arches spanning approximately 660 meters.

The structure was completed in 1960 and functioned as a key connection between the islands for two decades. It played an important role in the region's infrastructure development until it ceased operation in the 1980s.

The bridge represented the engineering capabilities of Swedish infrastructure development, constructed by Krupp and Skånska Cementgjuteriet using advanced techniques of the period.

The bridge was accessible to vehicles and offered a direct route across the water. Visitors could view the structure from various vantage points and appreciate its design from different angles.

The bridge held the record for Sweden's longest arch span at 278 meters when it opened, featuring a navigational clearance of 41 meters at its highest point.
