Greece - Kipi, Lazaridis Bridge

Greece - Kipi, Lazaridis Bridge
The one-arch stone Lazaridis Bridge (also known as Kontodimos Bridge) was built in 1753 and named after Kostas Lazaridis, an owner of a mill, located near the bridge. Mr. Tolis Kontodimos from the nearby village of Vradeto donated for the construction of the bridge. The watermill was used by the people of Kipi, Koukouli, Kapesovo and Vradeto in order to grind the wheat.

The bridge is located in the gorge of the river Vikos near the village of Kipi and connects the village of Kipi with Koukouli. The arch is 15 meters wide and has a height of 7,80 meters. The walkway has a length of 20 meters and is 2,90 meters wide. The bridge is also known as the “Venice Bridge”.

As always, a deep historical review that is appreciated. There is a very similar bridge of Roman origin in my town. Kind regards, Anton.

Over 250 years old and still standing! A tribute to the bridge-builders of old.
