Svendborgsund Bridge

Svendborgsund Bridge is a road bridge that connects Svendborg on Funen with the village of Vindeby on Tåsinge island across Svendborg Sound. The structure allows both cars and pedestrians to travel between the two areas, spanning the water with multiple sections that support the roadway.

The bridge was completed in 1966, replacing earlier ferry connections between the islands. This infrastructure project significantly improved mobility between Funen and Tåsinge, making overland travel practical for the first time.

The bridge serves as a vital transportation link in Denmark's maritime region, connecting communities across the waters of Svendborg Sound.

The bridge is designed for car traffic and also accessible to pedestrians and cyclists. The best time to cross or visit is during good weather, as strong winds or storms can make the crossing uncomfortable.

The waters beneath have gradually accumulated objects that fell from vehicles or pedestrians over the decades. These accidentally gathered items tell stories of the everyday moments of people who cross daily.
