Green Bridge, Road bridge across Moyka River in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The Green Bridge spans 39.8 meters across the Moyka River, connecting Nevsky Prospect with cast iron arches and decorated with golden candelabras.

Initially constructed in 1716 as a wooden drawbridge, it became Saint Petersburg's first cast iron transport bridge in 1806, establishing a standard design for metal bridges.

The bridge connects to notable landmarks including the Stroganov Palace and the Herzen State Pedagogical University, forming part of Saint Petersburg's architectural ensemble.

Located on Nevsky Prospect's axis, the bridge underwent reconstruction in 2019-2020 to meet modern transport requirements while maintaining its historical appearance.

The structure features 126 elliptical cast iron segments arranged in rows, with arches embedded into abutments using an innovative engineering solution.
