Alarchin Bridge, Granite bridge across the Griboedov Canal in Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Alarchin Bridge features distinctive granite lanterns that provide illumination while connecting both sides of the Griboedov Canal at Anglisky Prospekt.
The foundations of the bridge were constructed between 1783 and 1785 during the installation of granite embankments along the canal system.
The bridge's name derives from Aladchanin, a local shipbuilder whose presence influenced the development of maritime infrastructure in Saint Petersburg.
The bridge serves as a vital crossing point for vehicles and pedestrians, connecting residential areas with commercial districts in central Saint Petersburg.
Granite materials used in the bridge's construction match the embankments, creating a harmonious architectural connection with the surrounding structures.
