Passerelle suspendue, Metal footbridge in Buttes-Chaumont Park, France

The suspended footbridge spans 65 meters across the lake, connecting the western bank to Belvedere Island at a height of 8 meters.

Engineer Gustave Eiffel designed this metal bridge in 1867, marking an early example of his architectural expertise before constructing the Eiffel Tower.

The bridge stands as a representation of Second Empire engineering, integrating industrial materials within the naturalistic design of the park.

Visitors can cross the footbridge to reach the Temple of the Sibyl, located on the central island of the park's lake.

The bridge's metal structure features decorative pylons designed to mimic natural rock formations, blending with the park's artificial landscape.
