Cleaning crew at Elizabeth Bridge in Budapest


Elizabeth Bridge was named after Queen Elizabeth, the wife of Francis Joseph I had been assassinated in Geneva in 1898. With only one 290-meter span it stretches over the Danube. The original bridge built in eclectic style was known as the longest suspension bridge of the world. The Elizabeth Bridge was the only one in Budapest not to be rebuilt immediately after the World War II. A completely new bridge was only built between 1960 and 1964, nearly two decades after the original Elizabeth Bridge had been destroyed
