Ha'Penny Bridge Dublin


View more Photos
One of Dublin's most famous bridges is the Ha'penny Bridge, a walk over bridge that crosses over the river Liffey and an important part of Irish heritage.

It was erected in 1816 as the Wellington Bridge and it acquired its better known nickname from the halfpenny toll levied on all users of the bridge up to 1919.

The Ha'penny Bridge is Dublin's oldest pedestrian crossing over the River Liffey.

This photo was taken from the southside of the river.
