castle bridge

Turkish bridge, Castle town
Ukraine, Kamianets-Podilskyi
The Castle Bridge connects Kamianets-Podilsky Fortress and the Old Town. It was built in the 15th century and was originally made of wood. During the short reign of the Turks, the bridge was reconstructed, paved with stone, and since then the locals call it Turkish.

A distinctive feature of the bridge is that it goes along the riverbed, and does not connect its banks.

The castle bridge in Kamianets-Podilskyi is considered one of the seven wonders of the city - it is an architectural monument of national importance. The buildings are popularly called the Turkish Bridge. Today it is a solid stone wall connecting the city with the Old Castle. Now it bears little resemblance to a bridge, more like a dam. But about half a thousand years ago it was a bridge where two carts could not turn around. The first mention of the bridge in 1494. According to the hypothesis of architects-restorers, the bridge was built by the Romans in the early 2nd century.
