The Mária Valéria Bridge in Štúrovo is a graceful steel‑truss gateway spanning the Danube and linking Slovakia to Hungary. Opened in 1895 and rebuilt after wartime destructions in 1926 and again in 2001, it measures roughly 500 m in length and 12 m across, with five uneven spans born of riverbed constraints . Today, it offers a seamless pedestrian crossing with no border checks, since both countries joined Schengen in 2007 . Walking across provides panoramic views of Esztergom’s hilltop cathedral and castle, making it a photogenic and symbolic connector of cultures . A short, scenic stroll that impresses with its history and vistas—a must‑visit...

Ahogy a hidak az összekötés szimbólumai, a csonka-, lerombolt hidak az elválasztottság, megrekedés mementói. Így volt ez a Mária Valéria híddal 57 hosszú éven át.

Az eredeti hidat 1895 szeptember 28-án avatták fel hatalmas ünnepség keretében, természetesen magas rangú politikusokkal. A király engedélyével a hidat Mária Valéria főhercegnőről, I. Ferenc József lányáról nevezték el. A hídépítés maga gyors volt: mintegy másfél év alatt készült el 1918-ig a hídátkelésekor vámot kellett fizetni, de ennek ellenére is élénk forgalom jellemezte 24 éven át. 1919 június 22-én kezdődött meg a híd hosszan tartó kálváriája. Ezen a napon csehszlovák katonák felrobbantották a párkányi oldalon lévő nyílást. 1923-ban kezdődtek meg a helyreállítási munkálatok, de a hídon a forgalom csak 1927. május 1-jén indult újra, az autóforgalmat pedig 1928-tól engedélyezték. Másodszor 1944. december 26-án a visszavonuló német csapatok a három középső nyílást felrobbantották. Már 1964-től tárgyaltak a felek a híd újjáépítéséről, de hosszú évtizedek alatt sem jutottak dűlőre. Már csak a rendszerváltás után 1999. szeptember 16-án született meg a híd újjáépítéséről szóló kormányközi megállapodás, akkor már Szlovákia és Magyarország képviselői között. Az építkezés 2000 októberében kezdődött, és egy évre rá 2001. október 11-én volt a híd ünnepélyes megnyitója, természetesen magas rangú politikusok jelenlétében. (forrás: wikipédia)

Szeretem ezt a Duna hidat, szeretek átkelni rajta.

Reméljük többször katonák politikusok parancsára nem rombolják már le, hogy magas rangú politikusok jelenlétében...

While it is just a bridge, it gives amazing views over Danube. We could see the vast expanses of the river. The best part is that in no time, you are in a completely different country, culture, jurisdiction etc. Hungary had pubs open, we went across the bridge hoping to get some local Slovak drinks! To our surprise every single shop was closed due to lock down by the slovak government. Two different worlds apart, and its just one bridge that is connecting the differences. Amazing...

This bride has a colourful "hard life" in the history, it "saw" the history... With this background it's one of the oldest spot in the city and those moments which have been linked the two countries to each other. If you walk along this bridge from Štúrovo to Esztergom, you can feel and see the meetpoint of the two countries, Hungary and Slovakia. Couple of plaques on the both sides end of the bridge give some information about itself, the Maria Valerie bridge. You have to see.
