Tumski Bridge

Tumski Bridge

Wroclaw,Tumski BridgePoland
Tumski Bridge, or Most Tumski, is a steel bridge located in Wrocław, Poland, spanning over the north branch of the Oder river. The bridge was constructed in 1889 as a replacement for an old wooden bridge connecting Ostrów Tumski and Wyspa Piaskowa.
Originally named Dombrücke, it was later renamed as Tumski Bridge. The bridge has a rich history, having been a road bridge for many years before being converted into a pedestrian-only bridge.
Tumski Bridge, also referred to as Lovers Bridge, Cathedral Bridge, and Green Bridge, has become a favored spot for romantics. The bridge is adorned with love locks left by couples who wish to commemorate their love. It is customary for couples to throw the key to their lock into the Odra river, making it a unique and romantic tradition.
In 1992, Tumski Bridge underwent extensive renovations, during which the original deck covering of Zores sections was replaced with an orthotropic deck. Today, the bridge remains an important landmark in Wrocław, both for its historical significance and its place in local culture as a symbol of love and romance.
