A folding bridge as a movable bridge is a multi-section bascule bridge that folds back to the bank.

The Hörnbrücke in Kiel is an example of a folding bridge . When half folded up, the movable bridge panels form a shape similar to the letter N.

Some military quick- build bridges and bridge-laying tanks use the folding bridge system.
