About Art Bridge

As a part of the beautification of the city, the Municipality of Center of Skopje took up various projects and pumped a huge amount of money in the Project Skopje 2014. The Art Bridge is one of the outcomes of this project. The Bridge is a tribute to the writers, painters, and various artists of Macedonia. Usually, the politicians and the rulers take the front seat in terms of the erection of statues in any part of the world. Therefore honoring the artists, writers, musicians of Macedonia in this form has been well appreciated by the visitors. The bridge is located on the river Vardar. It is an 83-meter long pedestrian bridge. It has 28 statues positioned on both sides on a stone railing and one at the center. Eighteen among 24 craftsmen were selected by the authorities to make these statues. The statues look good and are well defined. The bridge looks beautiful in the night sky when the decorative lights are on. Many tourists find this to be a copy of similar themes in Prague, Vienna, etc. Nevertheless, it has its own charm and has been well appreciated by tourists.
