Railway Bridge

Central District

The bridge that crosses the river of Daugava and the first iron railway bridge in Riga. The Railway Bridge, over 600 ftm long, and first erected in 1871-1872 for the Riga–Jelgava Railway. New bridge was opened in 1914, destroyed twice, during World War I in 1917 and World War II in 1944 just to be rebuilt again during the times of Soviet Union.

Since 2007 the bridge has started to be illuminated, which came with a price tag of around 320 000 EUR. A pretty large amount for Riga, however it does pay back with great views and those tourist shots.
