Martinsilta, Road bridge across Aura River in Turku, Finland
The Martinsilta bridge extends 104.5 meters across the Aura River, connecting Linnankatu street to Itäinen Rantakatu in Turku's central area.
The construction of Martinsilta in 1940 followed the original city plan created by Carl Ludvig Engel after the Great Fire of Turku in 1827.
Martinsilta serves as a central element in Turku's urban landscape, connecting neighborhoods while offering views of Finland's oldest city along the river.
The bridge operates as a one-way route directing traffic from Linnankatu to Itäinen Rantakatu, working in tandem with nearby Myllysilta bridge.
During the 2010 Myllysilta bridge collapse, Martinsilta adapted to accommodate two-way traffic, demonstrating its structural capacity and flexibility.
