Dronning Louises Bro, Historic bridge in central Copenhagen, Denmark.

The Dronning Louises Bro spans across The Lakes with three granite arches, connecting the districts of Indre By and Nørrebro through Frederiksborggade and Nørrebrogade streets.

Built between 1885 and 1887 by architect Vilhelm Dahlerup, the bridge replaced an older structure from 1562 that connected Copenhagen's North Gate to Nørrebro Road.

The bridge features cast iron railings decorated with Copenhagen's coat of arms, bronze cartouches, decorative helmets, and lions that reflect Danish architectural style.

Eight lampposts illuminate the bridge, which serves as a main transit route for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles crossing between central Copenhagen neighborhoods.

The bridge received its name in honor of Queen Louise, wife of King Christian IX, and was officially inaugurated on her 70th birthday in September 1887.
