Sölvesborg bridge

The Sölvesborg Bridge is a pedestrian bridge in Sweden that spans approximately 760 meters across the bay, connecting the city center to the Ljungaviken district on the Listerland peninsula. The structure includes separate pathways designed for both cyclists and pedestrians, with resting areas positioned at the midpoint for visitors to sit and take in the surroundings.

The bridge was built in 2013 as a major infrastructure project for the municipality, establishing a new connection between previously separated areas of the city. This development transformed how residents and visitors move between the urban core and surrounding neighborhoods without using motorized transport.

The bridge serves as a meeting point where residents gather for evening walks while observing the sunset and participating in community activities.

You can access the bridge from either side, with clear pathways suitable for both walking and cycling at any time. Benches placed at the midpoint offer a convenient spot to rest and enjoy views across the water.

The bridge features three distinctive arches that give it a recognizable silhouette visible from many points around the bay. An advanced lighting system illuminates the entire structure during night hours, creating a striking presence after dark.
