🏛 Gorbaty Bridge (Hunchback Bridge)

A small stone bridge over the buried Presnya River, one of the oldest in Moscow, a stone's throw from the White House.

The bridge was built in the mid-18th century on the dam of the Middle Presnya Pond and was called the Lower Presnya Bridge.
In 1806, when Moscow's first public garden was laid out at the Presnya Ponds, the bridge was faced with white stone.
In December 1905 fierce fighting took place for the bridge: it connected Presnya with the city center.
Since 1918 the bridge has officially been called the "1905 Bridge"; it was restored in 1980 for the 75th anniversary of the uprising.
In the 1990s rallies and pickets were held on the bridge, including by miners and defrauded depositors.
