Drottningholmsbron

Drottningholmsbron is a 250-meter reinforced concrete bridge that spans between Kärsön and Lovön islands and carries Drottningholmsvägen road. The structure provides separate passages for vehicles and pedestrians to cross daily between the two islands.

The bridge was built in 1973 and replaced the older ferry system that had served to connect the two islands. This construction marked a shift toward modern road transport in the Stockholm region.

The bridge links two islands and gives visitors direct access to Drottningholm Palace and the residential communities that have developed around this important royal residence.

You can cross on foot or by car using the separate pathways provided for each mode of transport. The bridge is open and accessible at all times without any restrictions or special entry requirements.

The bridge forms part of a network connecting numerous islands throughout Ekerö Municipality, allowing visitors to reach both modern residential zones and ancient Viking settlement sites within a short distance. This arrangement lets travelers experience layers of different time periods in a single area.
