Powstańców Śląskich Bridge in Kraków

The Powstańców Śląskich Bridge extends 148 meters across the Vistula River, connecting the districts of Kazimierz and Podgórze through Starowiślna and Na Zjeździe streets.

Initially constructed in 1913 under Edward Zitter's design, the bridge faced partial destruction during German retreat in 1945 and underwent complete reconstruction in 1971 by Józef Szulc.

The bridge bears the name of Silesian Insurgents, commemorating the early 20th-century uprising movements that shaped the region's identity and territorial boundaries.

Multiple tram lines, vehicle lanes, and pedestrian paths make this bridge an essential transportation link between central Kraków and its southern districts.

Positioned at coordinates 50.0492°N and 19.9533°E, the bridge provides direct access to the Bulwary Wiślane, a riverside promenade frequented by locals and visitors.
