Gothic Bridge in Kłodzko, Stone arch bridge in Kłodzko, Poland

The Gothic Bridge spans 52 meters across the Młynówka canal, connecting Sand Island with the old town of Kłodzko through four arched spans.

Construction of this medieval stone bridge began between 1376 and 1390, replacing an earlier wooden structure that served as a vital transportation link.

Six stone religious sculptures adorn the bridge's balustrades, including a 17th-century Pieta and figures of Saint Wenceslas and Saint John of Nepomuk.

The bridge stands near the Market Square and remains open for pedestrian traffic, providing direct access to both the monastery church and Kłodzko Fortress.

The mortar used in the bridge's construction incorporated egg whites collected from surrounding villages, leading to its local nickname 'Bridge on Eggs'.
