The Arlington Memorial Bridge is a significant symbol of unity, connecting the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., with Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. Officially opened in 1932, the bridge serves as both a ceremonial entrance to the nation’s capital and a tribute to the sacrifices of military personnel who fought to preserve democratic government.
Designed by the architectural firm McKim Mead and White, the bridge features neoclassical elements and various memorials along Memorial Avenue, celebrating diverse figures from American history. A major rehabilitation project was completed between 2018 and 2020, ensuring the bridge continues to embody its historical and national significance while enhancing accessibility for visitors.
