New Bridge (Novy Most)

There are five bridges across Bratisla, but the Novy Most is the most important and certainly the one that appears on the most postcards. It was called the Bridge of the Slovak National Uprising when it was finished in 1972. But the real name was rarely used, and it was colloquially known as Novy Most (New Bridge). When it was constructed, under communism, some streets had to be demolished, including an old synagogue. In one of the pillars there's a lift allowing you to ascend, with a restaurant at the top.
