Peace Bridge Wrocław, Vehicular bridge in Wrocław, Poland

The Peace Bridge spans 125.3 meters across the Oder River, connecting the northern and southern sections of Wrocław with vehicle and pedestrian lanes.

Professor Jan Kmita designed this bridge, constructed between 1954 and 1959 to replace the previous Lessingbrücke structure destroyed during the 1945 siege.

The structure received its current name in 1966, shifting from Voivodeship Bridge to Peace Bridge as a symbol of post-war reconstruction.

The bridge supports two lanes of vehicle traffic in each direction, plus dedicated spaces for pedestrians to cross between central neighborhoods.

The bridge incorporates engineering elements from the 1950s, marking a departure from traditional iron construction methods used in the previous structure.
