Panteleimon Bridge

St. Petersburg is a city built on islands, famous for its bridges.

One of them is Panteleimonovsky Bridge across Fontanka, located in the city center. The bridge in different years of the 20th century was called differently. The historical name of the bridge was returned in 1991. In 2002, the building was restored and colored illumination.

The unique look gives the bridge a decorative design of cast-iron lanterns in the form of the head of Medusa Gorgon and relief lion masks in the frame of eagle wings and handles of darts.

Panteleimon Bridge connects the Summer Garden and the Field of Mars with the Nameless Island. You can get to the bridge from the metro stations “Chernyshevskaya” and “Gostiny Dvor” through the streets of St. Petersburg. A little more time will take a walk from the metro "Gorkovskaya" through the Trinity Bridge and along the embankment to the Summer Garden.
