Guldborg, Denmark, Denmark

Guldborg Bridge (Danish: Guldborgbroen) is a historic bridge that spans the northern end of Guldborgsund, connecting the Danish islands of Lolland and Falster at the village of Guldborg.

Built between 1933 and 1934 and officially opened on 6 October 1934, it replaced the local ferry service and became an important transport link between the two islands. The bridge is a distinctive steel arch structure with a central double bascule section that can be raised to allow ships to pass through the narrow waterway. It is approximately 180 meters long and was once a key part of the route connecting Scandinavia with northern Germany.

Although much long-distance traffic now uses the nearby Guldborgsund Tunnel, opened in 1988, Guldborg Bridge remains an important local landmark. Its elegant design and scenic setting over the sound make it a recognizable feature of the region’s maritime and transportation heritage.
