Lejonströmsbron, Wooden bridge and architectural ensemble in Skellefteå, Sweden.
The Lejonströmsbron spans 207.5 meters across the Skellefte River, connecting the districts of Sunnanå and Prästbordet with its sturdy wooden construction.
Built in 1737, this structure earned recognition as Sweden's longest wooden bridge, maintaining this status until the construction of Gimonäs bridge in 2006.
The bridge represents early 18th-century Swedish engineering methods and serves as a central element in Skellefteå's architectural heritage.
The five-meter-wide crossing provides a direct route between neighborhoods while operating under specific speed restrictions to preserve its structure.
During the Finnish War of 1809, the bridge became the site of a significant battle, marking its place in both military and architectural history.
