Munkás Bridge, Budapest, Road bridge in District III, Hungary

Munkás Bridge, also called Hajógyári híd, is the second crossing of the Danube side arm on Óbudai Island in Budapest District III, linking the island with the Óbuda bank. The present structure, completed in 1968, is a suspended reinforced-concrete road bridge with a larger capacity than the nearby K Bridge.

The original wooden crossing was built in 1858 to span the Danube at this location. It was later rebuilt in steel and finally reconstructed in reinforced concrete form during the 1960s.

The bridge is named after its 1884 iron predecessor, known as the Munkás híd or Remmel híd. Each summer it carries equipment, supplies and camper vans into the Sziget Festival on Óbudai Island, so the crossing briefly becomes a service route for the event.

The bridge crosses the Danube side arm to Óbudai Island, not the main river, and carries road traffic; the parallel K-bridge offers a smaller-capacity crossing. In summer it is the route for equipment and camper vans entering the Sziget Festival, so expect heavy vehicle traffic then.

The 1884 steel version featured a lifting mechanism that allowed ships to pass underneath, representing an early engineering innovation for Budapest. This capability was eventually abandoned as shipping patterns changed and new technologies emerged.
