Kandija Bridge, Steel bridge in Novo Mesto, Slovenia.

The Kandija Bridge spans 75 meters across the Krka River with a single arch structure made of riveted iron connecting the old city center with the Kandija district.

Built in 1898 to replace a wooden bridge from 1600, this crossing point became essential for the development of Novo Mesto as a regional urban center.

The bridge received official recognition as a protected cultural monument in 1992, reflecting its significance in the architectural heritage of Lower Carniola.

Three major renovations in 1977, 1996, and 2009 have maintained the bridge's structural integrity while preserving its original nineteenth-century design elements.

Located at geographical coordinates 45°48′6.5″N and 15°10′14.7″E, the bridge stands at the convergence point of Heavy Creek and the Krka River.

Location: City Municipality of Novo Mesto
