Kong Christian den X's Bro, Road and railway bridge in Sønderborg, Denmark

The 331-meter-long bridge spans across the southern part of Alssund, connecting the Jutland peninsula with the island of Als through Sønderborg city center.

Built between 1925 and 1930, the bridge replaced the previous 220-meter pontoon structure from 1856, marking a substantial improvement in regional connectivity.

The bridge inauguration on October 7, 1930, gathered citizens from Sønderborg for a celebration with torchbearers and public speeches.

The structure features a 30-meter-wide navigation channel with a bascule mechanism allowing vessels to pass through when the bridge section opens.

During the 2022 Tour de France, yellow fabric covered the bridge for 100 days, transforming its appearance for the international cycling event.
