Warsaw Bridges, Bridge group in Wrocław, Poland

The Warsaw Bridges in Wrocław are a group of five bridges over the Oder and its canals in the city's north. The three older spans cross the City Canal, the Old Oder and the Navigation Canal; the two newer ones, built 2006–2008, run parallel and carry the tram tracks and eastbound traffic. The old eastern bridge combines six concrete arches with a raised pair of reinforced-concrete arches.

A wooden bridge on the road from Wrocław through Psie Pole towards Oleśnica and Warsaw stood here until 1870, when it was replaced by a four-span steel girder bridge on stone piers, the Hundsfelderbrücke. In 1897 a steel truss bridge followed over the new Stadtkanal, and in 1914–1916 the reinforced-concrete Hindenburgbrücke was built. The bridges survived World War II undamaged and were renamed most Warszawski in 1945.

The name refers to the road toward Warsaw via Psie Pole and Oleśnica, not to Poland's capital. The old eastern span, opened in 1916 and named Hindenburgbrücke, was renamed most Karłowicki in 1945 and later most Warszawski. The 2.25 m pavements are flanked by reinforced-concrete parapets, and the northern one is separated from the carriageway by a steel bar railing.

The old bridges carry only the westbound carriageway and the tram tracks run on the newer parallel span, so walkers cross on the northern sidewalk, separated from traffic by a steel railing; the southern sidewalk has been closed since the 2006–2008 expansion. The roadway is 7.5 m wide on the old eastern bridge, with 2.25 m sidewalks.

The western bridge of 1897 was dismantled in 1927–1928 and moved to the Rakowiec estate, where it still spans the Oława as Most Rakowiecki. The old eastern bridge, opened in 1916, hangs its deck on reinforced-concrete hangers with cast-iron inserts, the Emperger system.
