Aamot Bridge, Oslo

The Aamot Bridge, situated in Oslo, Norway, is a suspension bridge designated for pedestrians. It spans the Aker River within the Grünerløkka district of Oslo.

Initially constructed over the Drammen River in Buskerud, near the convergence of the Simoa River at Åmot in Modum, the Aamot Bridge dates back to the years 1851–1852. The bridge was fashioned using cast iron chains produced at the Nes Jernverk. It stands as one of Norway's earliest examples of chain-hanger bridges.

Over time, due to deterioration, the Aamot Bridge was replaced by a newer structure and subsequently bequeathed to the city of Oslo. In 1952, the bridge underwent disassembly and was painstakingly relocated, piece by piece, to a fresh site along the Aker River. Originally intended as an entranceway to the Technical Museum planned for the Aker River location, the museum was eventually established elsewhere. Nowadays, the bridge solely accommodates cyclists and pedestrians.

An inscription adorns the bridge, serving as a cautionary message: "I can bear a hundred men, but falters during the rhythmic march."
