Puente del Cristo de la Expiración, Steel road bridge in Triana District, Seville, Spain

The bridge spans 223 meters across the Guadalquivir River with two lowered steel arches of 130 meters each, supporting a 30-meter wide deck.

Constructed in 1991 during the Chapina riverbank restoration project, which recovered 4 kilometers of the Guadalquivir River's original course through Seville.

The bridge takes its name from the nearby Patrocinio Chapel, where the Brotherhood of Christ of the Expiration starts its Holy Week procession.

The pedestrian walkways feature white canvas coverings suspended from masts, providing protection from the intense Andalusian sun for those crossing the bridge.

The structure was built over dry land before the earthen dam was removed, leading locals to nickname it the Bridge of Leperos.
