Älvsborgsbron connects Gothenburg with the island of Hisingen, the fourth—largest island of Sweden. The bridge opened in 1966. It is 900 metres long, and its height is 45 metres. Sven Olof Asplund, who designed the bridge, also planned Kaknästornet, the television tower in Stockholm. If you walk to the middle of the bridge, you have a great view of the harbour entrance. Look to the west, and you will see the Älvsborgs Nya Fästning fortress. To get there take the number 9 tram from Brunnsparken to Jaegerdorffsplatsen. From the tram stop, it is about 15 minutes' walking distance.
