Bakke bridge, Heritage suspension bridge in Flekkefjord Municipality, Norway

The steel suspension bridge extends 53 meters across the Sira river, featuring two towers constructed from natural stone along its span.

Built between 1800 and 1824, the Bakke Bridge received protected status in 1959 to safeguard its structural and historical importance.

The bridge stands as an example of early 19th-century Norwegian engineering, reflecting the infrastructure development of southern Norway.

Visitors access the bridge via Fylkesveg 4208, with traffic flowing in one direction from Moi to Sira across the structure.

The 1931 Rally Monte Carlo route incorporated the Bakke Bridge along the Tronåsen passage before the construction of modern highway E39.
