Puente giratorio de Ensenada, Railway swing bridge in Ensenada, Argentina.
The iron structure spans across the Canal Oeste, enabling both train passage and water vessel navigation through its rotating mechanism.
Opened on December 21, 1913, the bridge formed part of the Buenos Aires-Puerto de Ensenada railway line, Argentina's first inter-port railway connection.
The bridge stands as a representation of early 20th-century industrial engineering, recognized as a National Historical Monument by presidential decree.
Located at the intersection of Santa Fe and Almafuerte streets, the bridge marks a central point in Ensenada's transportation infrastructure.
English company Frodymgham Iron & Steel manufactured the bridge components, which faced delivery delays due to a London port strike in 1911.
