Description
The Blauwbrug Bridge, an historic bridge in Amsterdam, Netherlands is over the Amstel River, connecting the Rembrandtplein area with the Waterlooplein area.
The bridge owes its name to a wooden "blue bridge" that was there from around 1600 but no longer exists and which was painted the characteristic blue of the Dutch flag. Built in 1883, similar in architecture to the Seine River Pont Alexandre III bridge in Paris.
The stone bridge has three openings for ships and is richly decorated. The bases are formed like ships' bows and on top columns with leaf-motifs, masks and finally the Imperial Crown of Austria, as also present in the city's coat of arms. The lantern poles have shipping decorations and the lanterns themselves are again in the shape of crowns.
