Bridge over Kamenka river, bridge in Kamensk-Uralsky, Russia
The bridge over the Kamenka is a brick structure with two arches spanning the river in the old part of Kamensk-Uralsky. The structure features stone supports built from roughly shaped stones and decorated arches with stepped patterns that define its appearance.
The structure was built in 1903 and replaced a wooden bridge that had operated for more than 200 years and required frequent repairs. In the 1990s, lighting and railings were added to improve safety and appearance.
The bridge takes its name from the Kamenka river it spans and serves as a recognized landmark in the old city. Visitors notice the craftsmanship when crossing: the brickwork, arches, and decorated structures reflect the skills of builders from over a century ago.
The bridge is located in the old city and runs east to west across the river, connecting different parts of town. Visitors can walk across and enjoy river views, especially during early morning or late evening when the area is quiet.
Virtual reality tours allow visitors to explore the bridge online and see its details up close, offering digital access to this historical structure. This capability makes it possible to understand the craftsmanship without being on site.
