The Jubilee Bridge is built on the pillars of the Imperial Bridge destroyed during World War II (German name: Kaiserbrücke / Kaiserbrücke), which was built in 1905.
The Jubilee Bridge was erected by the Kaliningrad City Hall according to the project of architect Alexander Bashin in commemoration of the 750th anniversary of Konigsberg - Kaliningrad. For this reason, to coincide with the opening of the bridge to the anniversary of the city, the bridge got its name - "Jubilee".
The bridge was opened on July 1, 2005.
The bridge is pedestrian and drawbridge, has three spans.
The length of the Jubilee Bridge is 70 meters, and its width is 6 meters. The average span of the bridge, which is 18.5 meters, is bred to ensure the passage of ships. Next to the bridge there is a bridge house, which houses mechanisms for raising the bridge.
