Matveev Bridge, Steel girder bridge in Admiralteysky District, Russia

The three-span Matveev Bridge extends across the Kryukov Canal, connecting Kolomensky and Kazansky Islands with a length of 27 meters.

Originally constructed between 1784 and 1786, the bridge featured a wooden structure with a movable central span supported by granite-faced rubble masonry.

The bridge received its current name in March 1919 to commemorate S.M. Matveyev, a communist worker who lost his life during the civil war.

Located near the Central Naval Museum and New Holland Island, the bridge provides two vehicle lanes and pedestrian sidewalks covered with asphalt concrete.

Four cast iron street lamps mounted on granite pedestals illuminate the bridge, complementing its simple metal railing design.
