Mirabrug, Swing bridge in Hamme, Belgium
The Mirabrug extends across the Durme River, featuring a mechanical rotating system that allows vessels to pass through the waterway when opened.
In 1991, the bridge received official protection status as a monument, recognizing its engineering and architectural value to the Belgian infrastructure network.
The bridge serves as a meeting point between the communities of Hamme and Waasmunster, hosting annual celebrations that bring both municipalities together.
Visitors can observe the bridge rotation process three times daily at 11:00, 14:00, and 16:00, while cyclists and pedestrians use it as a crossing point.
The bridge location includes dedicated parking spaces for camper vans, allowing travelers to stay up to 48 hours near the waterfront without charges.
