The Peace Bridge

The Peace Bridge is a remarkable structure that connects Derry's historically divided communities. This 235-meter-long pedestrian and bicycle bridge, with its distinctive curved shape, symbolizes the handshake between the two sides of the city.

Its asymmetrical, self-arching structure designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects is not only a practical connection, but also a powerful symbol of peace and reconciliation.

The bridge offers scenic views of the River Foyle and surrounding attractions, including Ebrington Square and St. Columb's Park. It's the perfect place for a walk, a bike ride or a moment to reflect on the region's turbulent history.
