The Tumski Bridge (Polish: Most Tumski, [mɔst ˈtumski], German: Dombrücke, [ˈdoːmbʁʏkə]), lit. 'Cathedral Bridge', is a steel bridge over the northern branch of the Oder in Wrocław. Constructed in 1889, it replaced an old wooden bridge to connect the Cathedral Island with the Sand Island. The bridge is open to pedestrians only.
Informally known as the Bridge of Lovers or the Bridge of Love, couples in love once pinned padlocks with their names on it.[1]
