Ołowianka Drawbridge

  ul. Wartka     06 Sep 2023
Another modern engineering marvel over the Motława, this much-needed footbridge connecting the Old Town near Targ Rybny to Ołowianka Island opened in June 2017. Prior to that it was a real pain to get across the river during the roughly 10 months of the year when it wasn't frozen solid. Similar to the Św. Ducha bridge, this pedestrian bridge is actually a drawbridge that raises straight up in the air from the Ołowianka side to let boats through roughly every 30mins, for 30mins, so you may have to wait to cross. On the other side you'll find the 'Gdańsk' marque sign that serves as social media bait, and the huge 'Amber Eye' Ferris wheel.
