Exchange Bridge

About

Exchange Bridge (́, Birzhevoy most) is a bascule bridge in Saint Petersburg, opened in 1894. The bridge crosses the Little Neva River (distributary of Neva River) close to the Exchange Square and connects the Vasilyevsky and Petrogradsky islands. It takes its name from the Old Saint Petersburg Stock Exchange (also Bourse) located nearby. The closest metro station is Sportivnaya.
