Bakkerbrug, Utrecht, Protected arch bridge in Utrecht, Netherlands.
The Bakkerbrug spans the Oudegracht canal in Utrecht, featuring strong stone construction and connecting the central parts of the city.
Dating from around 1300, the bridge received its name in 1357, possibly referencing a family named De Backer or the baking profession.
The bridge contains cellars in its abutments, connecting to a network of wharf cellars that form part of Utrecht's canal structure.
The bridge links the Bakkerstraat to the Neude square, serving as a central crossing point for pedestrians and vehicles in Utrecht.
A lantern console near the bridge displays a sculpture by Kees Groeneveld depicting the baking trade, commemorating the area's history.
