Djurgårdsbron, Steel and wrought iron arch bridge in Östermalm, Sweden
The Djurgårdsbron extends 58 meters in length and 18 meters in width, connecting mainland Östermalm with the island of Djurgården in Stockholm.
The bridge opened in May 1897 for the Stockholm Arts and Craft Exhibition, replacing an older iron structure that was demolished in 1895.
Four large pillars display statues of Nordic deities, including Thor with his hammer, Freya, Heimdallr with Gjallarhorn, and Frigga of Asgard.
The bridge functions as a primary transportation link between Stockholm's urban center and Djurgården island, serving vehicles and pedestrians throughout the year.
The bridge features decorative reliefs depicting sea monsters and festoons above shields that display the image of Saint Erik, Stockholm's patron saint.
