Palace bridge - is one of the thirteen drawbridges of the city, but its beauty and unique view, which opens from it, make it one of the main symbols of the Northern Capital. The bridge was named after the Winter Palace - the main residence of Russian emperors. As well as many other architectural buildings, which were erected before the February revolution, after 1916, it was without any developments in construction, but later it was finally finished. Palace bridge was built by the design of the engineer A. P. Pshenitskogo, but the architect R. F. Meltser was responsible for the whole concept and amazing beauty. In 1977 the bridge was reconstructed by the group of architects and engineers. The lanterns and the draw system were quite recast. The bridge mechanism easily rises seven ton spans up and it looks very impressive.
