Bayramören Bridge
Bayramören, Çankırı
A two-span, tile-roofed footbridge over the Melan Stream, built with wooden planks on stone piers.
Its story
Bayramören Bridge is on the Melan Stream outside the district center. The piers of the two-span bridge are of cut stone and the other parts of wood; being built with planks laid on stone piers gives it a distinctive architectural character. It is protected by a roof covered with Turkish-style tiles. Although its construction date is unknown, it is estimated to be 100–150 years old. On the governor's initiative, the bridge was faithfully rebuilt by the 15th Regional Directorate of Highways.
