Tripartite Bridge
Tripartite Bridge or Three-Arched Bridge is the name commonly applied by
St Petersburgers to a pair of diminutive bridges, similar in design and decoration and situated perpendicularly to each other in front of the Church of the Savior on Blood
.
The ensemble consists of 15-meter-long Theatre Bridge across the
Moika River
- both resting on a single Moika pier. Lipkin Bridge is also sometimes included in this group.
The bridges were first constructed in wood during the reign of
gorgons
.
Thanks to repairs undertaken in 1936, 1953 and 1999, the bridge remains in good condition, and is still open to road and foot traffic.
