Strängnäs Bridge, Transportation bridge across Lake Mälaren in Strängnäs Municipality, Sweden.
Strängnäs Bridge crosses Lake Mälaren and connects different parts of the municipality. The structure spans several hundred meters across the water and forms the main link between the separated areas.
The bridge's construction was a key moment in the region's infrastructure development. It enabled better connections for an area that has been inhabited since the Viking Age.
The bridge functions as a gathering point for local residents who regularly meet there to observe maritime activities and celebrate traditional Swedish summer festivals.
The bridge is open 24 hours a day for both pedestrians and vehicles with separate access routes. Walkers can enjoy views of the lake and surrounding countryside from designated pathways along the span.
In spring, the bridge offers views of the lake's ice breaking apart when large sheets drift away from each other. This annual natural event draws visitors who watch the process unfold from the bridge.
