The Dragon Bridge (Slovene: Zmajski most, historically also Zmajev most)[1] is a road bridge located in Ljubljana,[2] the capital of Slovenia. It crosses the Ljubljanica River.[3][4] between Kopitar Street (Kopitarjeva ulica) and Ressel Street (Resljeva cesta),[5] to the north of the Ljubljana Central Market at Vodnik Square.[6] It was built in the beginning of the 20th century, when Ljubljana was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. As one of the best examples of reinforced concrete bridges and of the Vienna Secession style, the bridge is today protected as a technical monument.[7] It is intended primarily for motorised traffic.
