Belelyubsky Bridge

The Belelyubsky Bridge is a former railway bridge over the Msta River in Borovichi that now serves as a pedestrian crossing. The structure features a curved arch design typical of early railway engineering in Russia.

Engineer Nikolay Belelyubsky completed this bridge in the early 1900s as a pioneering work in Russian arch construction. The project marked an important step in developing the country's railway infrastructure at that time.

The bridge carries the name of the engineer who designed it and serves as a landmark that locals recognize and value. Visitors can observe how the arch structure sits within the landscape and see how it remains part of the town's identity.

The bridge is easy to reach on foot and offers a short walk across the river with views of the surrounding area. The walkway is straightforward to navigate and accessible to pedestrians throughout the day.

Among all the bridges Belelyubsky designed throughout his career, this is the only one that officially bears his name. This makes it a distinctive example of his engineering legacy in Russia.
