Jeremiebrug

The Jeremiebrug spans the Kruisvaart waterway in Utrecht, connecting both banks at a key junction in the city's water network. Its yellow cast iron lifting mechanism represents an earlier period of bridge engineering that allowed boats to pass underneath.

Built in 1912 by the P.H. Hörmann ironworks, this structure replaced an earlier swing bridge at the same location. The site served transport needs for over a century before changes in the city's infrastructure led to its relocation.

The bridge carries the name of a former inn from the 18th century that once stood in the area. This connection to local hospitality traditions remains part of how residents and visitors think about the crossing.

The bridge is easily accessible for both walkers and cyclists, offering safe passage across the waterway. The area functions as part of the city's main route network with clear pathways and regular traffic flow.

The original structure was moved in 2015 to Máximapark in Vleuten, where it now crosses the Alendorperwetering. This relocation shows how the city preserves its engineering heritage by giving historic works new life in different settings.
