Henningsvær Bridges, Bridge group in Vågan, Norway
The Henningsvær Bridges include two concrete box girder cantilever structures, the Engøysundet Bridge and Henningsvær Bridge, connecting multiple islands in northern Norway.
The bridges replaced ferry services in 1983, marking a transformation in transportation methods for the fishing community of Henningsvær and surrounding islands.
These bridges connect the traditional fishing settlements of Lofoten, enabling the continuation of maritime activities while maintaining connections between local communities.
The northern Engøysundet Bridge spans 194 meters with a 122-meter main section, while the southern Henningsvær Bridge extends 257 meters with a 150-meter central span.
Located above the Arctic Circle at coordinates 68°09′35″N 14°12′53″E, these bridges withstand extreme weather conditions while serving as essential transportation links.
