Galerny Bridge

Galerny Bridge, Steel bridge on Admiralty Shipyard territory in Saint Petersburg, Russia

Galerny Bridge spans across the Fontanka River between two islands using a single-span steel structure with vertical metal supports. The construction was designed to serve the shipyard territory and displays simple industrial engineering.

The bridge was built in 1971 by the Lenmostostroy trust. On 4 July 1977 it was named after Galerny Island, which it connects to Bezymyanny Island. The name had earlier belonged to a bridge over the Kryukov Canal at Galernaya Street, dismantled in the 1840s when part of that canal was filled in.

The name Galerny comes from Galerny Island, which in turn refers to the galleys (gallery) once built and repaired at the Admiralty Shipyard. The bridge received this name on 4 July 1977; in the 1820s–1840s a different bridge over the Kryukov Canal, at the axis of Galernaya Street, had borne the same name before being dismantled when part of that canal was filled in.

The bridge is located on shipyard grounds and is normally not accessible to the public. Those interested can view the structure from outside the fenced area or learn more about it through city museums.

The name Galerny was assigned on 4 July 1977 after Galerny Island, but in the 1820s–1840s it belonged to a different bridge over the Kryukov Canal at Galernaya Street, dismantled when part of that canal was filled in. The present 1971 span, 31.2 m long and 10.7 m wide, was built by the Lenmostostroy trust.
