Stone Bridge, Monument bridge in Škofja Loka, Slovenia.

The bridge was built in medieval times and reflects the construction methods of that period. It has undergone repairs and maintenance over the centuries while retaining much of its original structure.
The bridge serves as a natural gathering spot where locals and visitors naturally cross paths, especially during weekends and local festivities. It anchors the historic town center and residents view it as an integral part of their everyday landscape.
The bridge is freely accessible and easy to cross on foot without special preparation. Nearby shops, cafes, and parking areas make it convenient for visitors to explore the surrounding town.
The stone blocks of the bridge come from local quarries and bear the distinctive marks of past stonemasons' handwork. These rough surfaces reveal the labor that went into their creation centuries ago.
