Belinsky Bridge, Stone bridge in central Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Belinsky Bridge extends 56 meters across the Fontanka River, featuring granite facades and metal railings supported by cast iron brackets.
Originally built as a wooden structure in 1733, the bridge underwent transformation into a three-span stone construction between 1782 and 1784.
The bridge received its current name in 1923 to honor literary critic V.G. Belinsky, who lived in the surrounding neighborhood.
The bridge accommodates both vehicle and pedestrian traffic, connecting the central districts of Saint Petersburg through integrated tram tracks.
The structure once featured granite towers that housed lifting mechanisms, making it among the first tower bridges in Saint Petersburg.
