Nepomucenusbrug, Medieval stone bridge in Bruges, Belgium

The Nepomucenus Bridge spans across the canal at Dijver, featuring a prominent statue of Saint John of Nepomuk positioned at its center.

The bridge earned protected monument status due to its architectural value and the late 18th-century incident when the statue was thrown into the canal.

The statue of Saint John of Nepomuk represents the traditional belief in protection against floods and drowning, reflecting local maritime heritage.

The bridge connects pedestrian routes near the Pandreitje car park and provides direct access to the surrounding historical district of Bruges.

The bridge serves as a frequent stopping point for horse-drawn carriages, allowing visitors to experience traditional Belgian transportation methods.
