Named after the Queen killed in 1898. The 380-meter long white cable bridge was
opened in 1964. A bridge of the same name was opened in 1903 and had been Europe's
largest single-arched bridge (one without interim pillars) until in 1926. This former bridge
was exploded by the Germans in January 1945.
Elisabeth bridge is the only bridge which was not restored to its original form because of
traffic, economic and technological reasons: the spanning is unchanged, but the
cross-section is different.
