You know! You are facing one of the most famous sights of Bratislava, New Bridge, also known as the SNP Bridge. You have a 394 meter structure in front of you that stands out above the Danube.
The sketch of the bridge started in 1957, but its construction was changed due to political events. During the construction in 1968 the Prague Jaro took place, leading to the normalisation of the regime. In 1972 the construction of the bridge was completed, which was officially opened.
The new bridge was built in memory of the SNP, which was the main action of the anti-fascist resistance in 1944. In 1968 a memorial was built on the bridge by sculptor Elizabeth Milučka. The Memorial is dedicated to the SNP and symbolizes the fight for freedom and democracy.
For many Bratislavaians, the New Bridge is a symbol of the city, representing freedom and democracy. It's a place where people from all over the city meet.
Thus the New Bridge became an integral part of Bratislava and its history.
