Şenyuva Bridge

The single-arched stone bridge spans 40 meters across the Fırtına River, rising 20 meters above the water with a width of 2 meters.

Built in 1696 during the Ottoman period, this bridge served as a vital connection point for local communities until its inscription stone disappeared in a 1946 flood.

The structure represents traditional Black Sea Region architecture through its construction methods, incorporating both rough and cut stone masonry techniques.

Located 7 kilometers from Çamlıhemşin center, the bridge remains open for pedestrian access and connects the village of Şenyuva to surrounding settlements.

The bridge's central arch features a distinctive pointed design, demonstrating the mathematical precision of 17th-century Ottoman engineering methods.
