🌉 Circle Bridge

The Circle Bridge is a 40-metre-long pedestrian and bicycle bridge spanning the southern mouth of Christianshavn Canal in the Christianshavn district of central Copenhagen, Denmark. It connects Applebys Plads to the south with Christiansbro to the north. Designed by Olafur Eliasson and opened in 2015, the bridge consists of five interconnected circular decks of slightly varying diameters. Their outer edges are supported by a total of 110 inclined suspension cables extending from the tops of tall masts positioned at the centres of the decks. Two of the circular decks can swing open together to accommodate water traffic through the canal.
