Hoge Brug

A pedestrian and cycle bridge over the Meuse completed in 2003. Its curved steel arch connects the old town with the modern Céramique district.

The High Bridge was designed by Belgian engineer René Greisch. Its steel arch spans about 160 meters. The bridge is for pedestrians and cyclists only, with long ramps leading down to the riverbanks at each end. The views from the bridge are excellent. On one side are the Sint Servaasbrug and the old town's towers, and on the other are the modern buildings of the Céramique district and the dome of the Bonnefanten Museum. It is a good spot for sunset photos. It is open at all times.
