A bascule and cable bridge that connects the north and south banks of the new Meuse, designed by architect Ben van Berkel

The Erasmus Bridge is a cable-stayed bascule bridge linking the north and south banks of the New Meuse. It was designed by architect Ben van Berkel. At 802 m long, it is built around an asymmetrical 139 m-high pylon that evokes the shape of a swan's neck, hence its nickname De Zwaan. The structure was inaugurated in 1996 and is one of the highlights of the city's urban landscape. A national fireworks display is held here on New Year's Eve.

Très belle architecture
Notre bateau était amarré pour la nuit près de ce pont. Magnifique le soir quand tout est éclairé. Et surprenant de voir qu'une partie peut être remontée pour laisser passer de petits bateaux. La circulation est alors interrompue un long moment, et on ne se lasse pas du spectacle !

Pont Erasme.
L’Erasmusburg (pont Erasme) qui comme le programme européen d’échange des étudiants et des enseignants doit son nom au philosophe Erasme originaire de Rotterdam et auteur de L’éloge de la folie. Il s’agit d’un pont à haubans avec un tablier à bascule qui relie les rive Nord et Sud de la nouvelle Meuse. La nuit tombée, lorsque les gratte-ciels en arrière-plan se parent de lumières, le Pont Erasme devient un sujet de photographie intéressant pour celles et ceux qui s’initient à la technique de la pose longue.
