Red Bridge, Steel bridge on Gorokhovaya Street in Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Red Bridge stretches 33.6 meters across the Moyka River, featuring four granite obelisks topped with bronze spheres at its corners.
The initial wooden drawbridge from 1717 was replaced by a cast-iron structure in 1814, followed by steel modifications during the 1953 reconstruction.
The bridge remains one of four color-coded crossings over the Moyka River, maintaining its historical red paint on the sides facing the water.
The bridge connects the central district with multiple hotels, restaurants, and provides direct access to the Admiralty building and Alexander Gardens.
Bronze spheres atop granite obelisks mark each corner of the bridge, creating a distinctive silhouette against the Saint Petersburg skyline.
