Flour Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Tsentralny District, Russia.
The Flour Bridge spans the Griboyedov Canal with a metal girder structure measuring 22.5 meters in length and 2.3 meters in width.
Built in 1931 for heating pipes, the bridge underwent reconstruction in 1951 under architect P. V. Bazhenov to become a single-span pedestrian crossing.
The name originates from the 18th-century flour warehouses and trading activities that defined this section of Saint Petersburg's commercial district.
Six metro stations, including Nevsky Prospekt and Gostiny Dvor, provide convenient access to this centrally located pedestrian crossing point.
The 1977 restoration replaced wooden components with metal plates, while maintaining the bridge's characteristic lattice design and decorative railings.
