Szabadság híd, Ferencz József híd, Fővám téri híd
The bridge was built between 1894 and 1896 to the plans of János Feketeházy. Although radically different in structure, the bridge imitates the general outline of a chain-type bridge, this is a Gerber truss structure bridge. The bridge was opened in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph; the last silver rivet on the Pest abutment was inserted into the iron structure by the Emperor, and the bridge was originally named after him. It is 333.6 m in length and 20.1 m in width the maximum span 170.75 m, number of 'openings' 3, with two lanes and a tram. The top of the four masts are decorated with large bronze statues of the Turul, a falcon-like bird, prominent in ancient Hungarian mythology.
