The Gubacsi Bridge ( Hungarian : Gubacsi híd ) is a road bridge in the Hungarian capital Budapest .
It crosses the so-called Kleindonau (Hungarian: Kisduna ), the left branch of the Danube in the south of Budapest and connects the island of Csepel and the XX. District of Budapest with each other.
The bridge was originally built as a railway bridge in 1924 according to plans by Béla Zsigmondy . During the Second World War , the Gubacsi Bridge was not spared from the work of the German demolition experts. The steel structure was rebuilt by 1947. Today it is a busy road connection, among other things by several bus routes.
