Kolyu Ficheto Bridge - Dryanovo

Overview

The bridge was built by Kolyu Ficheto in the middle of the 19th century. The facility is one of the early hydro-technical buildings of the master, in which he developed his ideas for a traditional Revival type "back" (Roman) bridge. Its length is 38.50 meters and the width of the canvas and sidewalks is 5 meters. The bridge has four arches with openings of different sizes, stepped on three massive stone columns. The highest is the second arch, over which the bridge deck is slightly arched. The bridge columns have water cutters and arched openings for high water. The pavement of the bridge is cobblestone, and on the sidewalks - slabs that protrude in front of the blocks of arches and railings to form a cornice and emphasize the curvature of the canvas. The shape of all arches of arches and drains is highlighted by a cornice. In 2015, artistic lighting was installed on the Fiche Bridge, in accordance with the architectural and structural features of the monumental site. The night lighting presents the facility aesthetically and contributes to the tourist attractiveness of the site.
